The Heaphy Track |
 … Heather took this photograph of me at the end of the track. Our final day’s walk – from the Heaphy Trampers Hut to Kohaihai – was 16.2 kilometres / 10.0 miles long, and it took us a tad more than five-and-a-quarter hours. The Heaphy Track is the longest walk in the pantheon of New Zealand Great Walks (only the Whanganui river canoe trip is longer); during our five days on the track, we had covered a total of 78.4 kilometres / 48.7 miles. |
