Thanks for the videos. They are great and give a very good idea of how the trail looks like. I am planning on walking Te Araroa starting in October 2020 and this is so helpful for me. So happy that you had such a great first days, the weather was amazing. Lucky !
I’m glad you’re enjoying it! The trail ain’t as scary as everyone made it out to be and is actually really nice. The South Island is by far the best part!
We got water from the camps we stayed at. There were also several very small streams that could be used. But it does take an effort to ration what you’ve got
Thanks! I’m using the iPhone 11 Pro on 1080 with 60fps. I think the first few videos I posted TH-cam cut the quality down but they should be 1080 on all the recent ones! It’s so nice having the 2x zoom and the wide angle lens
SurfK9 the beach is actually 90 (or 88) km long. The error might be a misunderstanding, but there is also a theory that some people who went up the beach by horse figured that they traveled a certain amount of miles per day, and they were off their usual mark.
This trail goes right past my house.. love watching you all pass..
Aww I love it! We’re so bright eyed and bushy tailed at the start!
Ninety Mile Beach is the "baptism by fire" of TA huh! ❤️
Haha for sure! Definitely filters out the weak real quick!

A Stray Life Thank you 😀
Are there many places to get water along the way? Apart from the toilets that say 'Not suitable for drinking!'

Can I ask what date you actually started?
I started on November 3
If this is New Zealand, why is it not the 144.841 Kilometer Beach?
No idea why it has that name. It’s not even that long!
