Overview of your experience

Weaving through the quiet beauty of the Marlborough Sounds, the Queen Charlotte Track is one of New Zealand’s most spectacular coastal journeys. 

The well-benched trail navigates a labyrinth of sunken valleys, with each day revealing new scenery as you pass hidden coves, crest sweeping ridgelines and meander through native forests.

Everything is taken care of on this all-inclusive trip. Carry only your daypack and unwind each evening in resort-style comfort with fine Marlborough wine and cuisine.  If you’d like a break from the trail, you have the option of taking a water-taxi between lodges.

Enjoy the company of friendly, knowledgeable guides who share stories of the region’s fascinating history and diverse wildlife.

Want to stay longer?

Add an extra night at Portage Resort and spend the day sea kayaking, fishing, or simply relaxing by the water.

The Queen Charlotte Track is one New Zealand’s best kept secrets waiting for you to experience it in comfort and style.

Highlights of your experience

  • Cruise on Queen Charlotte Sound to the famed Ship Cove
  • Stay in comfort at the Furneaux Lodge, Punga Cove Resort and Portage Resort
  • Climb the ridge between Kenepuru and Queen Charlotte Sound and take in panoramic views of your surrounds
  • Enjoy native birdsong as you hike through coastal forests to Endeavour Inlet
  • Relax in the spa pool at the Portage Resort Hotel
  • Take a guided eco-tour of the Motuara Island bird sanctuary
