FAULT-LINE ADVENTURE 8 DAY HIKING TOUR
New Zealand did not become one of the most diverse and dramatic
landforms on earth by accident. Where New Zealand is situated
happens to be right over a collision zone of two of the largest
slabs of the earth's crust forming a fault-line. Over millions
of years this collision has created the Southern Alps which are
the backbone of the south island. During this 8 day adventure,
we actually cross over the fault-line twice, once when we cross
the alps near Arthur's Pass and again on day 6 on our way to
Haast Pass. Don’t worry if you are a bit confused by plate
movement, collision zones and fault-lines because you are
guaranteed to love the amazing play ground that it has created
for us, and you will see it from so many different perspectives
whether it be hiking through deep limestone canyons, kayaking
across pristine lagoons, jetboating down the Wilkin River or
from the air in a helicopter above the mountains of Mt Aspiring
National Park. This is a trip of a lifetime, the perfect
combination of adventure and incredible scenery with quality
character accommodation to relax in at the end of the day.
This tour runs Saturday to Saturday, so you can squeeze it into
one week of annual leave.
Fitness Requirements:
No previous hiking experience is required, but you need to be
reasonably fit and enthusiatic. We will be taking you into
real wilderness areas so at times the tracks will be slippery,
rough and we will need to cross rivers.
The itinerary is flexible enough to provide time to relax or to
present you with challenges. We recommend you do some physical
preparation: brisk walking, jogging or cycling a couple of times
a week during the month or so before you arrive as this will
enable you to make the most of your trip.
Departure guaranteed with min 3 pax and max 11 pax per tour
