Time: 1 hour return to Conifer Hill lookout

Start at the northwest end of Woodland Walk and gradually climb through a stand of Douglas fir (planted in 1961). The walk meets Conical Hill Track and continues to the summit. Majuba Walk takes its name from the massacre at Majuba Hill, prior to the Boer War, where Hanmer men fought. For some time after 1903 Conical Hill was locally known as Majuba Hill.
