I want to comment but I'm a bit speechless. Dylan, that was beyond beautiful. The words and ideas spoken at the end of the film left me in tears. So beautifully crafted form the visuals to the music to the concept ...it was stunning. Thank you
I am really happy to hear your feedback it means a lot - Thank you very much :)
bro stop glazing him
The cinematography in this is outstanding. Bravo.
Thanks so much Mick - It means a lot
It is the people we meet that enrich our lives. I am so grateful that you were able to tell the story of these 4 amazing people. Nathan Van Helden, Francois Peguillet, Marion Abba, and Wieke Krol.
A human experience ! Thank you for your feedback :)
Mate... you did an incredible job. It brought me tears. Reminded me the beautiful simple days on trail yet full of tiny treasures and pleasures that wouldn't be noticed in the normal life. I really appreciate your work which would have taken you tremendous amount of efforts over two years. Thanks Dylan!! Keep walking your own life!!
Thank you for your lovely feedback it means a lot ! Keep your eyes wide-open :)
I’ve watched a lot of TA videos over the last few weeks. This was by far and away the nicest, most emotional, put together pieces. The females were amazing. You picked perfect people to talk to. Super inspiring. Thankyou ❤
I'm really happy to hear that you enjoy the film, thanks for your kind words 🙏🏻
Terrific cinematography! My son emigrates from Ireland 🇮🇪 to New Zealand 🇳🇿 this Wednesday so I’m looking forward to visiting and hiking it ! Completed the PCT in 2019 this looks equally awesome 👏 Thanks for sharing 😊
Congrats to have completed the PCT :)
This is absolutely beautiful. I had goosebumps from start to finish; the way you present the people on your journey makes it feel like I know them deeply from the very first second I hear them. You have brought together extraordinary voices and I can only hope to one day experience the trail for myself. Thank you for sharing this with the world.
I'm happy to hear that you enjoy the film. Thank you very much :)
I don’t comment a lot on UA-cam. But this movie touched me deep down. Thanks a lot mate for sharing your experience
i'm glad you did - Thank you so much :)
I wish I could drop everything and do this. this is inspirational.
Glad it has inspired you ! Thank youu :)
Do it
This made me feel so excited. I went to New Zealand, backpacking for three months, in 2002. I fell in love with the country and promised myself that I would return. At the end of next month, 20 years later, I am going to continue the love affair on Te Araroa. Can't wait!
Such a wonderful story! Wish you all the best for this adventure ahead :)
I've watched hundreds of vlogs and hiking documentaries and this was the most professional one I've seen! Absolutely awesome!

Glad you enjoyed the movie ! Thank you so much :)
Beautiful film about an incredible trail. I completed the Southland section early this year but had to pull out due to injury, I can’t wait to continue to complete it in sections. It’s such an experience to hike in places most kiwis don’t even know about
Oh sorry to hear that! I hope you will get back on the trail really soon and enjoy the full experience :)
Magnifiques trail !
Tu l'as dis :)
Beautiful and inspiring. Thank you !

This is the sort of film that changes people's lives and it's a huge credit to you. Watching this with my wife just now, she was musing how she could get 4 months off her work! You've got us thinking seriously mate! We've done Tongariro (our son is the youngest to do it at age 4) and other amazing walks and this would be incredible. Big thanks and cheers from Sydney - Dave
So happy to read your comment ! I really encourage you to do Te Araroa Trail and I hope you will ! Thank you very much :)

Très beau film sur ce trek, merci
Merci beaucoup Noémie :)
Merci pour cette superbe vidéo Dylan.
Avant de faire le trail, ont me disait de regardais ta vidéo mais je ne voulais pas car je souhaitais garder la surprise de la beauté du Trail.
Puis j'ai terminé le trail en juin et autour d émoi ont me parler toujours de regarder ta vidéo. Je ne pouvais pas, j'étais trop mal une fois le teararoa terminé !
Puis, il y a une semaine ou deux, tout en faisant du Apple thinning, j'écoutais les podcast de je t'emmène en voyage de alex Vizeo et jai eu envi cette fois, j'ai eu cette force d'écouter un Podcast parlant du Teararoa trail. Le tien.
J'ai mis du temps à sortir de cette post dépression mais je sais que je vais mieux car je peux reparler de Thru Hiking, du ta, et surtout regarder des vidéos et écouter des Podcast qui parle du Teararoa.
Merci pour cette merveille.
Ton travail et très beau et c'est Hikers sont très touchant
Que d'émotion qui remonte !!!
Quelle aventure 😊
Un grand merci pour ton message Marion, heureux que le film t'ai plu et félicitation pour avoir terminé le Te Araroa :)
Amazing video, great editing and nice balance of nature and personal stories. Love it!
I am happy to hear that you enjoyed the movie - Thank you :)
As someone who has been keeping this trail in the back of her mind for a few years, and is more Marion’s age and stage this movie was incredibly inspiring... and just so beautiful visually and audibly. Great stuff! Thank you 🙏
I'm so happy this movie has inspired you ! Thank you very much and I wish you the best :)
What a fantastic video. I've had a couple of friends do the TA, and I've hiked along a couple of sections, but always wondered what the "big picture" was like. I got a glimpse from this wonderful collection of sights and interviews - was almost in tears by the end. Thank you!!
Thanks so much for your feedback, I really appreciate :)
That was wonderful to watch! 👏 Thanks for creating this awesome piece. 😎
My pleasure thank you very much :)

Awesome film
Thanks :)
Wow beautiful presentation. Very inspirational and some great interviews on the way. Fantastic experience you’d had.
It has been a wonderful human experience, thanks so much :)
Wow, just wow! Probably the best hiking film I've ever seen. So smooth, epic editing and oh, the scenery. You captured it so well. Thanks for creating this beautiful piece of art. The road walking part always held me back from doing the TA, but your documentary changed my opinion. Thanks! Oh, and may I ask an annoying gear question :D I just got a new camera, I'm a total newbie and are wondering if a 35mm lens could work for a thru hike? I need to carry dog gear so I want to keep my camera equipment as light as possible.
Hi Steffi, on many sections of TA dogs are not allowed.
Thank you so much for your feedback it means a lot - I would personnaly take a 35mm because it allows you to be more flexible ! If you are not sure take a 28mm I had no problem with that lens :)
Magnifique Dylan ! Une vrais émotion tout au long de la vidéo entre les images et témoignages .. !
Je suis heureux que tu es apprécié le film, merci beaucoup man :)
I am from Japan, and I found out about this movie through Ken's UA-cam.
This is a very inspiring and wonderful film. I feel like I am there. Last summer, I was going to move to New Zealand but couldn't because of this situation, after that my motivation was down but this movie motivated me again :)
Thank you so much. I will definitely do it.
Thank you for your feedback ! I hope the situation will get better so you can make it to New Zealand and walk the TA :)
So so good!
Thanks :)
