  • We finish the Abel Tasman Track with a beautiful morning playing at a natural waterslide in Cleopatra's Pool, and hiking back to the trailhead. As we try to hitch back to the Te Araroa, we have a brief run-in with New Zealand law enforcement.
    Highlights:
    - Gorgeous beach sunrises
    - Natural waterslides
    - Hitchhiking adventures ending in handcuffs
    - Evenings playing frisbee before getting back on trail

    That large smooth rock was never supposed to be stepped on; but you'd expect such behaviour from an Aussie! Great video, lovely part of the country.

    Your smile makes me smile, and when you whisper morning,I inadvertently whisper back morning.
    He he he,😂
    I don't know.
    Anyway, it's good, another enjoyable
    Adventure with the two trek souljers .
    Thank you Lauren & the guys too.

    Who needs a hut when the weather is nice! 😊 And you get amazing sunrises!
    Are normally the huts included in your permit?
    I did hear you say that you had to make reservations for the last part on the South Island!
    The police lady was quite funny! 😊 I'm glad you didn't get arrested!
    Have a great Sunday! Kaat

    • @LaurenRoerick
      @LaurenRoerick  7 днів тому +2

      Yes, the regular huts are included in the hut pass you buy at the beginning, but the Queen Charlotte track is a great walk, so the huts are serviced and therefore cost money :)

    Wow I didn't know there was a water slide on the Abel Tasman. Josh managed to slip over right in the only dangerous spot of the whole track! When I did it I found the huts overcrowded with snorers keeping me awake half the night so reckon the tent option is not only cheaper but also nicer.

    • @LaurenRoerick
      @LaurenRoerick  22 дні тому

      Haha exactly- he was trying to herd a weka into the bridge and nearly fell off 😂
      Yeah that is the risk with sleeping in huts unfortunately- which is exactly why I like sleeping in my tent if there are too many people planning on being in the hut. And definitely cheaper!

    They put chocolate powder on cappuccinos in Italy too :) Great video and what beautiful places, thanks for sharing! Is it me or this trail seems more fun than the Hexatrex?

    • @LaurenRoerick
      @LaurenRoerick  22 дні тому

      I’d never had one come with chocolate powder automatically! So funny :) delicious tho.
      Yeah it has been more fun, but I think we had to make it that way since the trail is less interesting overall 😅

    As a New Zealander have to specify cinnamon on your cappuccino or else they just automatically add chocolate 😅

    With the cost of everything and especially the permits. Makes me wonder how you sort everything out financially with long trips

    • @LaurenRoerick
      @LaurenRoerick  22 дні тому +4

      There are no permits to hike this trail, it's free! And the hut pass is only $120 for 6 months, and I either stayed in a hut or a tent for 90% of my nights out here. That's way cheaper than rent :)
