Episode 3: How Many Mountains Do We Have Today? | New Zealand's Te Araroa Trail NoBo
Jeff and Sarah start to feel more like Te Araroa hikers after they survived the maw of the Longwoods and rainy Takitimus. They cruise through the Mavora Lakes and meet an incredible family, take some time off in Queenstown (though it is not quite as restful as they hoped), checkout a golf tournament (New Zealand Open), march upstream of the Arrow River, and conquer the Motutapu Mountains that seem to be on repeat.
Check out the links below for more info, enjoy! More technical videos for future TA hikers will be coming out, stay tuned!
