It is a steep climb, 100 meters in 15 minutes. If you have bad knees give Paritutu Rock a miss. But the view from the top of Paritutu Rock is well worth the effort. The climb up is very rocky and uneven, but there are chains for you to hold on to, do take a warm coat if the wind is blowing in from the west you will need it.
