The odd shaped rock located on top of the Old Man Range in Central Otago, NZ. This was a fast hike to the top to see it, with a run back down. Top facts - The Old Man Range has nothing higher between it and the South Pole. The rock is 26 meters tall at an altitude of 1682 meters high. #newzealand #otago #hiking #running #rockformations #travel #fastpacking #queenstown #southisland

    I am just starting fastpacking (at 68!) Thinking of doing this one in a day, though would be a much longer time than you, and with a lighter pack, as this is (just) doable for me. But I would also like to see the track from Totaranui to Wainui first, so would do that round trip the first day, then camp at Totaranui, and do the walk/jog you did the next day. But this would involve ditching my heavier pack so getting that taken back to the car around Kaiteri or as near as possible. Would you have any idea if that is logistically possible? Thanks

    • @mattabouttrails

      Hey Chris, I'm pretty sure you could use the water taxi's to do this for you. They transfer all sorts of freight for hikers and residents along the track.. have fun, it's a fantastic track..👌

    I see the Asianation of Auckland has gained pace even more since I left in 2006, that was some walk you did there, was that all in one day? would have liked to have seen a bit of Myers park, I used to live in the YMCA just opposite there in the 1970s and worked in Smith and Caughey in Queen street, surprising how grey and dismal everything looked but I suppose it's mid winter lol.

    • @mattabouttrails

      Took about 4 hours to cover the distance. Was indeed a grey day, but surprisingly warm for winter.
