                                              Famous Routeburn Track

                                              _ This great walk in Mount Aspiring National Park is a gradual ascent through 130million year old magical world of ferns, mosses, lichens & beech forest.  Explore forgotten paths of the Maori, as we travel along their old greenstone trails, finding new enchantment around each corner, where native birds abound. This walk is often described as being “far better than the Milford Track”.
