Routeburn & Queenstown
Moby | 3/2/2006Well the routeburn (32km) was a breeze after the kepler. even carrying my whole pack – useless clothes/books etc.
a totally amazing track.
I can see why it is rated in the top 10 walks in the world by Nat Geo.
2 of the days I tramped with a bunch of aucklanders. 4X 16yr old girls (they know how to verbalise continuously!)+ 4 oldies.
The weather on the alpine day wasnt too crash hot but we sat it out till lunchtime and missed most of the wind/rain.
A cruisy couple of days has been had in Queenstown, and about to hitch to Invercargill for Annas wedding.
