Boyle Hut - Hammer Springs

Sidste dag på Waiau Pass Track og dermed civilisation igen efter syv dage.

Det regnede det meste af dagen, og vi var tilbage i vores gode mudrede skove – hvilket jeg ikke har savnet.

Efter knap fire timer og et lille styrt i et vandløb ankom vi endelig til Boyle Outdoor Center, hvor man kunne købe nogle små forsyninger, herunder pizza og cola! Så tiltrængt! Det tog dog lidt tid, inden pizzaen var færdig, da strømmen havde været væk de seneste timer grundet vejret, og de derfor kørte på generator.

Vi havde arrangeret et shuttle ind til byen Hanmer Springs, som er kendt for sine varme kilder og bade. Vi havde derfor planlagt at blive i Hanmer Springs de kommende tre dage, hvilket jeg virkelig så frem til.

Det blev nogle afslappende dage med masser af mad!

Nu går turen videre til Arthurs pass den kommende uge.

Last day on the Waiau Pass Track, and with that, a return to civilisation after seven days.

It rained for most of the day, and we were back in our familiar muddy forests - something I definitely hadn’t missed.

After just under four hours and a small fall into a stream, we finally arrived at Boyle Outdoor Center, where it was possible to buy some basic supplies, including pizza and cola. So badly needed! It did take a while before the pizza was ready, though, as the power had been out for several hours due to the weather, so they were running on a generator.

We had arranged a shuttle into the town of Hanmer Springs, which is known for its hot springs and baths. We had therefore planned to stay in Hanmer Springs for the next three days, something I was really looking forward to.

They turned out to be some very relaxing days with lots of food!

The coming week I’ll be on Arthurs pass.Baca lagi
