S03E06 | Rakiura Track Great Walk Part One // New Zealand Great Walks

Written By Long White Gypsy on Sunday, May 09, 2021 | 02:59 AM

 
The Rakiura Track is one of the ten Great Walks of New Zealand, and I'm currently on a mission to complete all of them! This track, located on the third largest and southernmost of New Zealand's three main islands, is an adventure through a pristine and prehistoric past, but is still a fantastic track for beginner multi-day and long distance hikers. Join me as I hike the Rakiura Track Great Walk in an anticlockwise direction over 3 days from Lee Bay on the northern coastline of Stewart Island through to the Fern Gully Road end. In this episode I journey from Bluff to Oban, then hike the short distance to the Lee Bay trailhead before making my way to Port William Hut for the night. The next morning I wake early and make my way through the muddy centre of the island towards North Arm Hut. ⬇ WATCH NEXT ○ RAKIURA TRACK Part Two: https://youtu.be/eQPUY214VvA ○ THEN WATCH the Abel Tasman Coast Track Intro: https://youtu.be/n9fvKXhGANM ○ PLAYLIST - Te Araroa North 19/20: https://bit.ly/3eeOpbU ------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------ **BECOME A PATRON FOR MORE EXCLUSIVE CONTENT** As a subscriber of my channel you'll automatically get weekly updates from my upcoming thru-hike of Te Araroa's South Island right here on this channel.
