ITINERARY

WHAT’S INCLUDED

  • Complete the Abel Tasman National Park and its beauty
  • 5 nights accommodation in beautiful lodges including 4-star Awaroa lodge
  • Walk the entire track end to end pack free
  • A la carte meals at Awaroa Lodge including 2-course dinners
  • 5 breakfasts, 4 walkers lunches and 4 dinners
  • Comprehensive track notes, map case, insulated lunch bag and container

ACCOMMODATION & DINING

The accommodations in Marahau are both comfortable lodges and located next to the park in native bush; all the rooms have ensuites.

One of the highlights of our Abel Tasman walk is staying right in the middle of Abel Tasman National Park for two nights and being able to explore the area at your own leisure. The luxury of the Awaroa Lodge is an additional bonus. The lodge has a long history which you’ll learn more about once you arrive and the staff are ready to help in any way they can.

The dinners in Marahua are 2-course a la carte, at Awaroa 3-course a la carte, and the cooked breakfasts are also prepared by Awaroa’s professional chefs.

Please note we can not book the same class of room at Awaroa because of the number of rooms we need; though all excellent, some may be bigger than others.  Rooms will be assigned on a  first-in-best-dressed basis.

GENERAL INFO

AVAILABILITY OF ABEL TASMAN WALK

This trip is offered at the best time of year to walk the Abel Tasman Track. Between October to April

 

WALKING

This track is smooth, well-graded, with mostly gentle ascents and descents. This is as good as it gets. Walks are about 14km a day allowing you to explore the many isolated beaches and potentially add on some of the optional walks we have suggested.

GETTING THERE AND AWAY

Flights to Nelson are available from all major New Zealand centres. From Nelson, you will enjoy a private transfer to the beginning of the Abel Tasman Track. If you choose to self-drive, the roads (coastal or inland) from Christchurch are excellent and offer ample opportunities to explore on the way. Your vehicle can be left safely at your accommodation in Marahau.

See Getting There and Away for Queen Charlotte for other alternatives if you are considering doing both walks. We can transfer you between both walks.

WEATHER

December through February is usually warm to hot with excellent swimming weather. But as mentioned please book well in advance for January and February due to the summer school holidays. March through May and September to November is usually cooler, with long sunny days, perfect for walking.

See the New Zealand Meteorological Service for information about average temperatures and rainfall at different times of the year.

INSURANCE

We require that you have adequate travel insurance against potential losses, damage or injury, including cancellation costs and loss of luggage.

For all trips that require international travel, you must have purchased travel insurance that also includes medical evacuation coverage.

We also charge a cancellation fee if you cancel your walking holiday after we have confirmed it to cover costs incurred from our suppliers and in the office.  See the FAQ section for more information.

INFORMATION PACK

For almost 30 years we have taken pride in providing seamlessly organised walking holidays, but we know, even with that in mind, that you’ll have many more questions. You will receive a very detailed information pack and itinerary approximately 6 weeks out from departure outlining all the fine detail and much more.
