New Zealand-born male with a curiosity for hiking and adventures in this beautiful country. Follow me to discover and experience realistic adventures in the outdoors as I document my personal journeys and bring them to you!
Mount Grey Track, Mount Grey/Maukatere Conservation Area, New Zealand
Beginning at the Grey River crossing, Mount Grey is a steady climb through bush and trees with stunning 360-degree views at the top. The track will take you between 2-3 hours to reach its peak height of 933m. Allowing approximately 5 hours in total for this hike, on a clear day you get wonderful views of the Grey River, the West Mountains and the East Coast of the South Island of New Zealand.
Difficulty = Beginner/Intermediate.
I recommend high ankle and waterproof hiking boots if there has been rain in the days prior, due to the mud as you can see in the video. Otherwise, good trail running or hiking sturdy running shoes will be sufficient.

Avalanche Peak Hike, Arthurs Pass, New Zealand

I recommend completing this trail during the warmer and dryer seasons because it can be dangerous towards the top if you are not careful....
