Hike along the Kakapo Ridge in the Kahurangi National Park

Hike the Kakapo Ridge, Kahurangi National Park

 

Each week, we highlight our fave tramping trails in New Zealand for day and multi day hikes across Nelson Tasman (and beyond!)

KAKAPO PEAK, KAHURANGI NATIONAL PARK 


This stunning ridge walk is an awesome day walk option from Fenella hut in the Kahurangi National Park🛖 It takes approximately 2 hours to reach the peak itself. It’s a steady climb to begin and then you’ll find yourself walking along a magnificent ridge line for the remainder of the walk.

Once back at the hut, if you’re brave enough you can enjoy a swim in the tarn overlooking the mountains surrounding!
