Starting at Collingwood this stunning walk brings you out onto subtropical West Coast beaches with Nikau Palms & drift wood to finish in Karamea.
Features: subtropical rainforest, subalpine tussock and Wild West Coast beaches.
Walking the 77 kilometre track takes 5 days, easy to medium walking, suitable for most people. All rivers and streams are bridged and boots, while advisable are not necessary. Excellent in spring, summer and autumn (September to March), but not recommended in winter. Track accommodation is in public backcountry lodges with bunkroom sleeping and shared facilities. Lightweight 2 person tents are also carried to allow flexability in overnight stopping places. Hikers are welcome to use these for sleeping if they would rather not use the bunkrooms.
Track Grading:
On a grading system of 1 (easy) through to 5 (tough walking, very fit people only) we would grade this track as 2&1/2 . The days are moderate being easily managed by those with average fitness. There is time to relax and take swims on the way.(swimming in the sea on the West Coast is not recommended). On this walk hikers carry all food & equipment with them.
5 Day/4 night Guided walking Tour package includes Department of Conservation fees, guide, food, camping equipment., and Government Tax, end of track transport to Karamea. Personal hiking gear is not included. Have a look at the free offers and Spare Seat Travel Deals page as there may be discounted seats available on the days that you are visiting.
