Did this drive from Christchurch to Greymouth then to Haast to Queenstown and back to Christchurch. In a camper van, me and my good Mate in 2022 RIP. I drove most of it and this brings back great memories.
Wonderful views along this drive, the pass is not a very high one, but you start climbing from sea level. There are some high snowy mountains to be seen, must be great to do some hikes there. The road is also of good quality, a pleasure to drive through such landscapes on a good road with light traffic. Thanks for sharing, always nice to learn more about New Zealand through your videos, thanks for sharing, greetings from a road-tripper from Germany!
It's one of the most frequently closed passes thanks to slips and erosion.It only goes to 562m in altitude, which isn't high by European standards (Stelvio, for example, is at 2,757m). This pass is about winding through narrow valleys and crossing easily flooding rivers. Thanks for your comment, I'm looking forward to a tour of Germany, Austria and Italy next year.
Thanks, yes subs are slow early on - I guess what I do is quite niche. Getting it right before I head overseas for roads in Fiji, Aus, South Africa, Switzerland, Italy. Should be a lot of fun!
Love the Haast Pass especilay on a wet day. Thank you for these videos!!
Glad you like them, and thanks for the feedback. A lot more coming from NZ and overseas.

Glad I could be of assistance with returning memories. Yes, it sure is an excellent part of the world.

Mesmerising. Not many subs for your efforts but I hope you keep it up. Well done. Subscribed.
