Mount Pirongia is an extinct stratovolcano located in the Waikato region of New Zealand's North Island. It rises to 959 m (3,146 ft) and is the highest peak around the Waikato plains. Pirongia's many peaks are basaltic cones created by successive volcanic eruptions between the late Pliocene and early Pleistocene, about 2.5 million years ago. In the adjacent picture, the characteristic profile of the mountain can be seen, along with a prominent accessory cone to the right (on the northern flank).
There's a trail leading to the summit. Pirongia is one of the 28 peaks along the multi-day Te Araroa - North Island / Te Ika-a-Māui.
The nearest mountain hut is Pahautea Hut located 500m/1 639ft W of the summit.
