    Wonderful 3 day Trek

    Booked through Hiking NZ, this was a wonderful trek. The first day was quite long, and although it was listed as an easy trek, probably due to the lovely overnight accommodation, a reasonable level of fitness is required. The scenery was spectacular along the entire...More
