A two day, 32km trip up the Fyfe river and up onto the Mt Owen Massif. We camped on the slopes of Replica hill and then traversed south of Mt Owen to Sunrise Peak and out. The Mt Owen Massif has been shaped by ice aged glaciers and centuries of water erosion, the unique alpine karst landforms of the Mount Owen massif are both unusual and spectacular. At 1875 metres, Mt Owen is the biggest peak ...

A five day rafting trip on the grade 2/3 Clarence river passing thru a landscape transformed by the 2016 Kaikoura earthquake and tectonic plate movement. We camped on the side of the river in tents each evening and our guides provided meals cooked over an open fire. A fabulous remote bit of New Zealand which is difficult to reach except by the river.

Alta Via 1 is the most popular of all the ‘high routes’ in the Dolomites. Of all the Alta via trails, hiking Alta Via 1 is the easiest with no via ferrata but also the busiest option. We did a variant of the standard route: Lago di Braies to Listolade which was 75km spread over 8 days. The highest point reached was Rifugio Lagazuoi situated at 2,752m (9,029ft). The height gain on our variant wa...

The Wangapeka track crosses Kahurangi National Park, from West Coast near Karamea to the Waimea Basin in the east. It crosses two saddles, each of over 1,000 m, and travels through the beautiful beech-forested valleys of the Little Wanganui, Taipo, Karamea and Wangapeka rivers. There is little traffic from Helicopter Flat hut to the west coast where the track is graded as a route. There are war...

The Red Hills in the Richmond Range are an outcropping of ultramafic rocks, which are a striking red colour and rich in minerals containing iron and magnesium. They form poor soils and support little vegetation. These rocks are highly abrasive and I'd recommend you wear old footwear and gloves if travelling in the area. Similar rocks are found on the southern West Coast, some 480 km away - move...

A fine weather window gave us a great opportunity to spend longer than expected above the bush line avoiding the sandflies and enjoying the fabulous views! We had given ourselves plenty of lay days if the weather wasn't great which made for a very relaxed, laid back trip when we stuck this great weather window. A heavy dump of snow earlier in the week validated us carrying crampons & ice axes b...

Auckland Tramping Club Interim Trip - March 2024 If the stars aligned the plan was to spend as much time as possible on the tops of the Ella range, Spenser mountains and Zampa tops. Unfortunately they weren't and we spent the majority of our time tramping along the valley floor waiting for the heavy dump of snow to melt from day three. Once that started to melt we had high winds on the tops whi...

Most of our group of twenty from the Waimea Tramping club had booked early for this trip as the logistics are an time consuming and its years between trips. The Kahurangi Keepers House can be reached after a 3-4 hour, 10km beach walk along a fabulous stretch of the west coast 45km south of Farewell Spit. The 25 bunk Keepers house has a good sized Kitchen and dining area with plenty of space to ...
