Feeling absolutely smashed after a big big hike today! Got the taxi to Split Apple Rock, then Adele Island again to see more seals (got a lot closer this time), then got dropped off at Torrent bay. Four and a half hours later Paul the skipper picked me up again at Onetahuti beach. It had been raining at the start of the hike but it soon cleared up, but the second I set foot on the beach it started coming down again. Great timing! Much too tired to draw a map right now or write more, so have some pretty pictures from today:

Our day hike in Abel Tasman National Park
After getting up early and a refreshing wake-up-me-up-bath we went to Whariwharangi ("wh" is pronounced as "f") today, the weather again unsurpassable. The day's stage is by far the most beautiful part of the Abel Tasman Track, and there are only a few hikers left. Of course we have saved the detour to the planned overnight accommodation. From there you can take a water taxi to various entry points to the track at a bay. I walked the track completely and had planned to take the bus from Wainui back to Marahau. New Zealand has so many hiking trails that it is really hard to make a decision. Again and again I came across hiking trails on the spot which I had not heard about before despite research. And when planning a multi-day hike I made a lot of mistakes. To make sure you don't make the same ones, I have put together the things I would have liked to know in advance for planning the Abel Tasman Track.
If you continue to use the website, we will assume that you have given your consent. You can find all details in our privacy policy. What is the best way to get back to Marahau (from Wainui Bay Carpark)?

In New Zealand this is really an art, as there are very few roads, especially on the South Island.
>Yeah, it really feels like a class reunion among hikers.
>Here we cross the tidal river over a suspension bridge and in another 15 minutes we reach the end of the bay, where the Onetahuti Campground (2 m) is located.>
Because instead of enough food he only took a few carrots with him. Eureka, that backfired beautifully.

One day on the Abel Tasman Coast Track

Is there a bus connection or how did you get back? In this sense it is not a round trip. At some of the huts you can refill your water supply with rainwater. Unfortunately this is not the case at all huts. So much for the mileage of the individual sections. They are really only adjusted to the shortest route. Moreover, there is so much to discover on the side, as Cleopatra's pool, that I can only recommend you to book early and not to skip any of the huts. Huge, lush green tree ferns and Nikau palms shade the golden yellow dream beaches and give the track a tropical flair. Finally, the sunny climate has made the Abel Tasman one of New Zealand's most popular hiking trails. Read more about campervan hire New Zealand here. |}
Since we had to/ wanted to walk back the same way the same day, the hut slid out of reach because of the previous stops at the many bays.
Since my friend had quite a few blisters on his feet, we wanted to take the easiest way and asked the ranger what we should do. Ranger Ryan told us that the Gibbs Hill Track is just uphill (400 meters altitude difference) and down on the other side. If we would take the beach in Wainui with us before, the detour would definitely be too strenuous for blistered feet. Therefore we decided to go for point 1. Enjoy your last day trip in jungle-like surroundings and take a lot of pictures, because unfortunately the Abel Tasman Coast Track will be over already tomorrow. Today you walk within 4 hours from Bark Bay to Awaroa. The first part leads you along the beautiful coast of Onetahuti through an impressive fern forest. From Anchorage Bay you walk behind a rocky island to Torrent Bay in one hour. You'll see many creeks and seabirds and probably a stray canoeist trying to conquer the beaches on his individual New Zealand trip. From Torrent Bay you continue through the jungle to Bark Bay. You will cross a suspension bridge and pass a waterfall. Here you will leave most of the tourists behind you and reach the next overnight spot of the Abel Tasman Coast Track in about 3 hours.

abel tasman walk (3)
Suggested Stages for the Abel Tasman Coast Track Greatwalk - Backpacker Tips
There is a lodge near them, which also serves food and drink. (If the Awaroa Hut is fully booked, you can also book a room here, which is far more luxurious than the lodges) Whariwharangi Hut was one of the cosiest huts for me. Spread over two floors there are four rooms in total. From Marahau you reach Tinline in about 45 minutes, you could also shuttle to Anchorage and start from there. Directly at Tinline Camp there is a short "Nature Walk".
If the same walk is too boring for you and you have already seen the Seperation Point you can also take the Gibbs Hill Track back.
{
First of all think about how many days you have for the track.the way, the official low season in New Zealand doesn't start until May. Fortunately we didn't get to see much of that. Closer to the start of the Coastal Walk you are in Marahau and Kaiteriteri. Here we first get an introduction to kayaking by our tour guide Tom. After a short dry practice in paddling techniques, we finally get going. With a minivan we are brought to a small river where our double kayaks are waiting for us. Getting into the sports equipment is still a bit bumpy. But also the view to the sea and the Marlborough Sounds is fantastic. But one has to go further some time, as the tidal river at the Onetahuti Beach can be crossed only 4 hours before and after low tide. But after crossing the Tonga Saddle, soon the Awaroa Hut is reached. The Ocean View Chalets are small wooden chalets built into the slope. Read more about campervan hire New Zealand here.

abel tasman trek (4)
My recommendation is to go back to Totaranui via point 1 or 2, the most strenuous ascent we had when we took a detour to the beach and had to go up the hill again.
day 3 - hike to the next hut in the national park
Read more about campervan hire New Zealand here. We learned that a return trip by boat was no longer possible due to the low tide. They would take us by quad bike to an inlet of the bay, from there we should walk the rest of the way to Totaranui. So we said goodbye, thanked for the beautiful day and set off with three young women.
We continue to Whariwharangi hut and then in about one and a half hours to the Wainui parking lot.
From there you walk about four hours per day and the ascent and descent is limited.
{
For this trip we recommend to take a daypack with the main luggage.
>>Definitely a day full of highlights for all of us.>>
Travel Report - Abel Tasman Coast Track
At the end of the village, just after the single-lane bridge, there is a large D.O.C. car park on the right-hand side. Even large motorhomes will find a place here, if there is room. When we wanted to park here in 2018, the place was already full, and that in the early morning. This was also an opportunity to protect ourselves against New Zealand's most dangerous animals, such as sandflies, mosquitoes, leeches or marchflies. Alternatively, this time the detour is only 10 minutes long. A steep ascent takes you over Mosquitoy Bay to Onetahuti Bay, where one of the longest sandy beaches in the entire National Park awaits you. When we arrived in Nelson on 01.11.13 we checked the weather for the next days and the Abel Tasman Track with the Department of Conservation. The next day the hike should start. We bought some camping gas for our stove (great present, thanks sea good!) and then we went to the starting point in Marahau. Without letting it show, he threw out the bait cool. After a short "phew, done" breath he had the first fish on the hook after about ten seconds. The boat came up to 15 meters to the beach, stopped abruptly, and without losing time with greetings, we were called out orders from the boat. Within seconds we had to carry our two children (1.5 and 4 years old) and the bathing bags through the knee-deep water and onto the boat.

Abel Tasman N.P. Walking Tracks travel report
The luggage was heavy, in the end the way became very long and the sandflies annoyed us too. At the end there was the water taxi ride back to Totaranui where our car was waiting for us. Unfortunately we did not see any dolphins, but what is not, can still become. From the beginning I was totally impressed by this landscape, which could easily compete with a kitschy postcard picture of the South Seas! Alternatively, this time the detour is only 10 minutes long. A steep ascent takes you via Mosquitoy Bay to Onetahuti Bay, where one of the longest sandy beaches in the entire national park awaits you. Exploring New Zealand on foot is not only the cheapest but also the most spectacular option. The boat driver points still in a direction "That's the way to go", then the small boat set back and we were alone on a beautiful yellow sandy beach. At that moment I could have just stayed there, that's how beautiful I found it. Read more about campervan hire New Zealand here. This is a unique experience as the water is so clear that you have great views of the water world below you and the great bays and beaches in front of you. Sea kayaking in Marahau is easy to organise yourself. On the other hand, you continue along an uneven path, which is criss-crossed by thick roots. |}
Transfer to Kaiteriteri to the entrance of the Abel Tasman National Park.
When planning your trip you should keep in mind that the track goes through a bay that you can only cross at low tide.you want to go north from Auckland, here is a tour proposal for a short distance to Orewa.
>> At the beginning of the consideration everyone asks himself the question - do we want to visit the North or the South Island?
The small excursion boats regularly sail along the coast of the Abel Tasman National Park up to Totaranui.
With the water taxi to the start of the hike
The first stage ends with reaching the Tinline Camp Site after approx. It took us more than an hour, because there was so much to see and photograph on the way, and finally we did not participate in a cross country run. The camp site is equipped with picnic benches and a toilet house.
15 km paddling and one day later a 22 km hike in the Abel Tasman NP. Everything was both awesome and the weather was fantastic. I had started everything you currently find under "World in Colour" last year on my "HappyWorldPictures.com" as a "picture book" page. Until a friend told me I had to do it more professionally. The trail then leads away from the coast into the Abel Tasman National Park.

3 Days Kayaking in Abel Tasman (Our Tips and Experience)
Our experience exploring one of the most beautiful coastal destinations in the world was phenomenal. This is what it’s like to spend 3 days kayaking in Abel Tasman National Park.
Tumblr media
New Zealand is known for being one of the most beautiful nations in the world, home to dramatic mountain peaks, hanging glaciers, sprawling thermal hot springs and lush rainforests.
Travellers come from far and wide to hike the Great Walks, ski down crazy slopes, jump off of bridges and climb steep cliff faces.
Much to our surprise it also happens to have some of the best postcard-perfect beaches of anywhere we’ve ever seen.
After touching back down in Australia for a few months we were longing for some adventure, and being this close to New Zealand got us desperate to cross the ocean again and check it out.
Check out our Travel to New Zealand guide.
During our research of epic places to visit we came across the famous Abel Tasman National Park, the most popular park in the country, and instantly wanted to see it for ourselves.
Rather than being covered in jagged peaks and rugged valleys, Abel Tasman National Park looked like a tropical paradise, with pristine islands covered in dense rainforest and a turquoise sea lapping gently against white sand beaches fringed with palms.
Of course this being New Zealand, the gorgeous beaches weren’t places to laze in a hammock with a cocktail in hand – this was a place to have an adventure.
Two of the main ways to explore the park are by land, with the famous 60km Abel Tasman Coastal Track taking up to 5 days to complete, or by sea kayak.
Having done a lot of multi-day hikes in our lives we thought it’d be fun to mix it up and do something different. We had sea kayaked before, although never for more than a day at a time, so thought with our lack of experience it’d be best to join a professional tour operator.
Check out our video from our time kayaking in Abel Tasman National Park in New Zealand!
By far the best tour company in the region is Abel Tasman Kayaks, so we reached out to them and asked what the best options would be for us.
They offer everything from single day ‘freedom kayak’ options, right up to an mammoth 5-day trip. We had the time, but as it was getting late in the season they weren’t running the 5-day one when we would be there.
On their advice we decided to spend two days hiking and camping independently in the national park, then joining them for their classic 3-day kayaking tour.
They told us they could organise one of their private water taxis from their office at Marahau (which is also the launching point for most adventures in Abel Tasman National Park) to take us to Totaranui, the campground at the end of the road.
We’d be left to our own devices for two days, then would meet our kayaking team back at Totaranui to start the paddling adventure.
Based on local recommendations we jumped on the Department of Conservation website and booked one night at Mutton Cove (a place the guys at the kayaking centre claimed was one of the most beautiful spots in the entire park), and Anapai, a quieter beachside campsite close to Totaranui.
With the logistics taken care of, now all we had to do was get to Abel Tasman National Park!

Before The Paddle – Hiking In Abel Tasman
After a few great days in Christchurch hanging with friends we jumped on a bus and headed up to the funky town of Nelson in the north of the South Island for the night.
The team at Abel Tasman Kayaks (ATK) had organised for us to get a transfer from our hostel right to their office, the launching point for adventures in Abel Tasman National Park, at Marahau.
When we got there the place was a hive of activity, with dozens of excited travellers getting kitted up for the various guided hiking and kayaking trips that ATK organises.
We checked in at the front desk and dropped off the gear we didn’t need for the next 5 days in their secure locker room, such as our laptops and non-hiking clothes.
With our backpacks loaded with camping and camera gear we jumped in a bus and drove out to meet the water taxi.
The 90-minute ride to Totaranui was absolutely sensational, with the boat driver ‘Cuzzy’ (a hilarious local) dropping off passengers in spectacular coves, and following the coastline in search of penguins and seals, while cracking jokes the whole way.
We couldn’t believe the shades of blue that were glimmering in the mid-morning sun as we cruised along towards Totaranui. When we finally arrived we disembarked, said bye to Cuzzy, and got ready for our hike.
Learn more about the Abel Tasman Coastal Track in our new ultimate guide to hiking in New Zealand!
We took the long way to Mutton Cove via Gibbs Hill, a 13km track that climbs through beautiful forest and offers splendid views over the coast.
It was about 4pm when we wandered into Mutton Cove, and our jaws instantly dropped. As far as campsites go, this one is pretty remarkable.
On either side of the beach magnificent rocky headlands rise up, and the forest reaches right to the edge of the sand. We pitched our tent, went for a swim to wash off the day’s sweat, and got chatting with the 5 other campers that were also making this home for the night.
After we cooked dinner one of the couples lit a fire in the pit and we sat around roasting marshmallows and sipping on wine before calling it a night beneath the incredible glow of the Milky Way.
Sunrise Mutton Cove Campsite
And how our campsite looked in the morning with sunrise.
The next morning we only had a short walk to Anapai, so took our time packing the tent and enjoyed a cup of coffee on the beach with no one else around.
Around 10 we started walking the coast and arrived at Anapai much quicker than we expected, in less than an hour. Our original plan was to have a leisurely day before the kayaking mission, but we had no idea we’d have hours to kill.
Not ones to complain about being in paradise with time up our sleeves, we pitched the tent again and went exploring in the rock pools to the south of the beach. When the sun was getting too hot we relaxed under the trees and listened to music.
We cooked an early dinner and headed off to bed, with the sound of waves lapping at the shore being our lullaby.
The following day we made our way to Totaranui by 9am and waited for the kayaking adventure to begin.
Day 1 – The Adventure Begins
Normally the 3-day kayaking tour with Abel Tasman Kayaks starts right at Totaranui, but the wind and seas had picked up, so the company decided to start further down at Onetahuti, which was also going to be our campsite for the night.
The water taxi collected us and took us down to the next beach. The sun was shining, but as soon as we left the protection of Totaranui’s cove the waves started throwing our boat around. We instantly knew that kayaking around the headlands wouldn’t have been a good idea.
Once we got to Onetahuti we met our awesome guide Jezza (Jeremy) and the 5 other guests; two couples and a single guy Jay, who had come from Nelson that morning.
The two couples were doing an overnight trip, while Jay was doing the 3-day kayaking with us. We all started chatting and immediately got along.
Jezza gave us a detailed safety briefing on best kayaking techniques, how to get in and out of them properly, how to use the skirts, what to do in the unlikely scenario of a capsize, etc.
He then handed out life vests, dry bags and rain jackets, and told us the altered plans for the day.
As we weren’t paddling from Totaranui, we were would use Onetahuti as our base, and kayak from there to some of Jezza’s favourite highlights, which actually worked in our favour.
Excitedly we packed our cameras into the drybags, loaded into the double kayaks and headed off.
It only took a few minutes for everyone to get into the swing of things. Before too long we were all in unison, making our way north surrounded by a sea of impossibly blue water and overgrown trees making the background.
There really is nothing quite like being out on the water on a perfect day!
Loving life on the water in Shag Harbour.
Careful not to get into rough seas, Jezza kept us close to the rising cliffs, not only offering us protection from the wind but also giving us a chance to look out for fur seals.
We were making our way to Shag Harbour, a place that Jezza claimed was one of this favourites in the entire national park, and that is only accessible by kayak at high tide. Our timing couldn’t have been any better, and if we had have started our trip from Totaranui we would have missed our window.

04.02.2019, Tag39, ATCW, Etappe 2
Heute haben wir sehr gemütlich gefrühstückt und den Blog von gestern noch vervollständigt. Das Internet schlägt uns einige Schnäppchen hier im Urwald und außerhalb der Zivilisation, verständlich!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Wir starten spät in die 2. Etappe des Abel Tasman Coastal Walks (ATCW).
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Diese Etappe führt uns direkt von unserer Lodge weg auf einer Strecke von 13,5km an 4 wundervolle Buchten vorbei. Eine traumhafter und einsamer als die andere. Schon die Namen sind exotisch schön: Onetahuti, Tonga Quarry, Tonga Arches und Bark Bay.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Es fällt uns auf, dass auf diesem Track besonders viele der Tramper (ca. 90%) zwischen 18 u 25 Jahre alt sind. Das liegt wahrscheinlich daran, dass hier an jeder Bucht ein Campground ist, wo gezeltet werden kann. So sind die kosten für diesen Walk doch deutlich geringer, als auf den anderen Great Walks, wo eine Übernachtung in den sehr einfachen Hütten pro Person 140 NZDoller (85€) kostet. Auch ist dieser Walk von der Beschaffenheit der Pfade, als eher mittelschwer bis leicht einzustufen.

Píše sa rok 2021, leto NZ času, je koniec janurára a teda čas spáchať poriadnu turistiku! Tentoraz sme sa rozhodli zmeniť stratégiu a vymeniť hory za pláže. Turistiku sme spestrili kajakovaním a to hneď na 5 dní, z čoho 4 dni a 3 noci sme absolvovali známy trek Abel Tasman. Hneď prvý deň kajakovania a narazili sme do skaly, ktorá sa rozpolila (viz obr. 1)... ehm, minimálne vyškriabať sa na ňu nám dalo zabrať :D Na ďalší deň sme zbalili stan, karimatky, nasáčkovali jedlo, všetko do našich mini batohov a vydali sme sa na 4dňovú “pádlopúť” Pre začiatočníkov v kajakovaní výrazne neodporúčam vyraziť s nafukovacím kajakom na otvorené more pri vlnkách a menších vlnách... alebo veď sranda musí byť :D druhý deň sme plánovaný presun kajakom museli zabaliť na iný čas. Poslali sme ho vodným taxi naspäť a ďalej pokračovali peši užívaním si nekonečných zálivov, pláží a krásneho počasia. A čo by to bolo za turistiku, keby sme aspoň raz neprekročili rieku alebo záliv (viz obr. 6 a 7), kde sme museli čakať na odliv 4 hodiny (viz obr. 6), aby sa dalo prejsť  aspoň po stehná vo vode. Škoda, že batérie na našich zariadeniach nevydržali ako my až do konca :D Takže zábery sú len z prvej polovice našej cesty a my sme sa šťastne vrátili vodným taxi k našej Voxy. Prajem pekné popozeraníčko :)

🚣🏼‍♀️🏃🏼‍♀️
Am Dienstagmorgen wurde ich dann extrem sanft von den ersten Sonnenstrahlen geweckt um entspannt in den Tag zu starten...nicht, denn Julia hat sich nämlich während dem Sonnenaufgang noch ein letztes mal umdrehen wollen, wobei sie sich genüsslich über den Autoschlüssel gerollt hat, was dafür gesorgt hat, dass der gesamte Campingplatz um freundliche 6:30 Uhr von Julias Alarmanlage geweckt wird🤦🏼‍♀️😑 Naaaaaa klasse haha der Tag fing natürlich schon mal gut an😄 Zumindest war ich mehr als wach und konnte somit früh in den Tag starten, da einiges auf dem Programm stand. Der Abel Tasman Nationalpark ist für seinen Coastal Track bekannt, welchen man komplett an der Küste entlang für bis zu 6 Tagen gehen kann. Es sind 60km und in bestimmte Abschnitte und Übernachtungsstätten eingeteilt. Da mir diese 6 Tage jedoch zu lang waren und ich ehrlich gesagt auch zu schissig war den Weg alleine zu gehen und alleine zu campen, habe ich mich um eine Alternative gek��mmert. Und zwar habe ich eine Art Tour gebucht die aus 2 Teilen bestand. Teil 1: Mit dem Wassertaxi von Marahau nach Onetahuti und von dort aus mit dem Kayak um Tonga Island in die Bark Bay. Teil 2: Von Bark Bay den 12km Walk bis nach Anchorage und von dort aus mit dem Wassertaxi zurück nach Marahau...also wie man liest, ein ganz schöner Trip😄 Um 8.30 Uhr ging es also ins Camp der Veranstalter um sich anzumelden, den Guide kennen zu lernen und erste Einweisungen zu bekommen. Ungefähr eine halbe Stunde später kam auch schon unser Taxi. Und da wir noch nicht direkt am Meer waren, dachte ich uns würde ein Bus oder sowas in der Art ans Meer bringen um von dort aus dann das Wassertaxi nehmen zu können..aber nein haha da kam tatsächlich ein Traktor um die Ecke, der auf seinem Anhänger schon das Boot hatte auf das wir aufsteigen konnten😄🤷🏼‍♀️🚜 So ging es auf unserem Gefährt also über die Straße bis als Meer. Und da auch Ebbe war haben wir die Kayaks hinten mit aufs Boot geschnürt und der Traktor hat uns bis ins Meer gefahren, damit wir direkt vom Anhänger aus abfahren konnten😄 Erster Halt dann also: Onetahuti. Dort ausgestiegen, alle Kayaks abgeladen, Einweisung bekommen und schon gings los aufs Meer. Meine Gruppe bestand lediglich aus 2 Kayaks. Eins mit einem holländischen Paar und meins mit mir vorne und dem Guide Richy hinter mir. Erstmal ging es gerade aus um Tonga Island herum, da dort sämtliche Robben und Vögel zu sehen waren. Die Robben sind sogar ums Kayak herum und ich hätte sie ohne jegliche Anstrengung anfassen können🙈 Von dort aus ging es noch an ein/ zwei andere Buchten, bis hin zu Mosquito Bay. Richy meinte vorher, dass die Strände und Buchten mit den schrecklichsten Namen die schönsten seinen und damit hat er absolut nicht gelogen. Ich hatte Stunden in der Mosquito Bay verbringen können und hätte mich noch nicht satt gesehen. Von dort aus ging es dann in die Bark Bay. Dort ging es dann an Land und es gab Mittagessen. Damit war dann der erste Part mit 3h Kayak fahren geachafft🙈💪🏼 Weiter gin also auf den 12km Walk..übrigens komplett durchnässt, da ich es nämlich tatsächlich geschafft habe aus dem Kayak zu fallen...dabei belassen wir es mal..ich erklär das lieber mal nicht🙄😄 Naja wie auch immer haha es war auf jeden Fall ein unfassbar schöner Weg und ich konnte kaum glauben, was ich dort für eine Landschaft gesehen habe. Einfach nur unbeschreiblich schön! Mach guten 3,5 Stunden kam ich also in Anchora an, wo bereits auch schon das Wassertaxi gewartet hat. Nachdem die letzten dann auch ankamen sind wir mit ein paar Kayaks hinten drauf wieder zurück nach Marahau gefahren. Da der Traktor jedoch noch nicht bereit war, haben wir nochmal einen Schlenker zum Apple Split Rock gemacht, wo uns auch er nochmal von Chuck Norris erzählt hat😄 Kurze Zeit später hat unser Kapitän auch schon gekonnt auf den Anhänger des Traktor gelenkt und ist mit einem Satz aufgesetzt und der Traktor konnte uns rausziehen und zurück zum Camp bringen. Von dort bin ich dann zurück zum Campingplatz und wollte einfach nur noch duschen, essen und schlafen. Unter der Dusche habe ich dann gemerkt, dass ich mir den Scheitel verbrannt habe..und das sogar ziemlich stark. Das blöde war nämlich, dass ich mir morgens noch dachte "So, Julia..biste mal schlau und ziehst ne Kappe an!" Naja gut..ich hab sie dann nochmal ausgezogen um mein Gesicht einzucremen, weil ich dachte dann wär ich ja doppelt schlau, jedoch hab ich die Kappe aufs Autodach gelegt und bin eingestiegen und losgefahren🤦🏼‍♀️ Tja, Kappe weg🤷🏼‍♀️ Respekt an meine Intelligenz👏🏼😂 Und da mir an dem ganzen Tag ja nicht schon genug passiert ist, bin ich auch noch nach nem kleinen Einkauf im Lädchen nebenan auf dem Rückweg mit meinem Flipflop im Gulli stecken geblieben und hab mich der Länge nach komplett abgelegt und hab nur noch gesehen, wie die Gurke vor mir weggerollt ist😂😂 Ich konnte auch nur noch lachen in dem Moment, bin aufgestanden hab die Gurke wieder eingefangen und bin zurück zum Auto. Nach dem Abendessen konnte ich mich dann aber nach einem anstrengenden und trotzdem super erfolgreichen Tag hundemüde ins Bett legen und einschlummern😴 Marahau/ Abel Tasman Nationalpark - 24. Oktober'17
