That's really cool, I bet it makes for an awesome experience. I'm keen to come try one day, as soon as I work out what else there is to do in Westport ๐
Haha, there's some fantastic mountain biking, lots of amazing walks (day and multi-day), some good self-drive history tours (old coal and gold mines etc), horse treks, white water rafting, surf schools and more.
How does someone get from Wellington to Westport without an 8 hour drive? ๐ซค
3h on the ferry then 4h on the road ;) (technically only a 4h drive!) Or fly with SoundsAir
Ah, my quick google mapping must have included the ferry. 4h isn't quite as bad. A day or two in Nelson on the way could work too (we know someone there).
The next issue is that after the Christmas break I'll have about 1 day of annual leave left. Can you solve that problem? ๐
Haha, sadly, no.
