Overview of your experience

Spend three glorious days walking the Abel Tasman Coast Track on a guided journey that blends adventure with comfort.

Hike well-formed tracks through native forests, over granite headlands, and along the golden-sand beaches that make Abel Tasman National Park famous. With all the details taken care of, you can relax into a slower pace of life. Swim in the crystal-clear waters, look out for native wildlife, and enjoy the camaraderie of this group experience.

Each evening welcomes you to a cosy beachfront lodge, complete with hot showers, al fresco dining, and a glass of wine. Your luggage is already there waiting for you; on this trip you walk with only a daypack.

One of New Zealand's Great Walks, the Abel Tasman is more beautiful than you can imagine. This trip is a wonderful and comfortable way to experience it.

Add sea kayaking to your experience!

Swap your boots for a paddle and explore places inaccessible by foot. Facing north-east, Abel Tasman National Park is nicely protected from the prevailing westerlies, and the sheltered waters are perfect for beginner kayakers. Choose more hiking, more paddling, or a mix of both. This trip moves at a pace that suits you. Request this upgrade when you book with us.
