3 Days on the Queen Charlotte Track | Marlborough Sounds, New Zealand

[@TheHi_King]

I used to work at Punga Cove Resort driving the boats between their and Furneax Lodge and picking up people on their yachts! Good memories of a beautiful work playground! I remember running the whole Queen Charlotte track in a day towards the end of my job as my workmates didn't think it was possible. Did it in 15 hours :)

[@ChrisandDanya]

Wow that is quite the feat! I can't imagine running the whole track 😅 well done!

[@AthollMoir]

Nice to meet your mother & that she enjoyed hike with you. Lovely area, great flora and fauna thanks.

[@ChrisandDanya]

Thank you for watching!

Wonderful video. Brings back great memories. So cool you got to share that trip/trail with your Mom. Great job as always. Thank you for sharing.

[@ChrisandDanya]

Great to hear from you John, hope you are doing well! Still haven't decided what video we're doing next, but the Whanganui Journey is definitely going to be one of the next 3 videos. That was an interesting experience to take my mom on 😬😅

[@johnhallford239]

@@ChrisandDanya Clearly, there's a story behind that. I look forward to hearing it. As usual, your video took a good day and made it even better. Safe travels.

It was very popular 😅

This was wonderful Chris and Dania! Very well put together!

[@ChrisandDanya]

Thanks Auntie Candy! Hope to see you when we move back to Canada later this year! 😊

[@lettersfromjapannewsletter]

Dear Chris and Danya, I am a fan of your youtube channel. Everything is so well filmed. Last year, I benefited from your videos a lot when planning to hike three of the Great Walks in New Zealand. While I searched your channel and could not find any related video, I was wondering if you also hiked the Great Ocean Road in Australia? That is my next hiking trip.

[@ChrisandDanya]

Thanks for the continued support, it really means a lot! Unfortunately we have not done the Great Ocean Walk in Victoria, but would love to do it some day!

[@GailKerr-yt6rv]

Amazing! I have seen some of the photos from the trip, but this video brings the experience to life! Sooooo well done! Thank you for sharing it with us!

[@ChrisandDanya]

Thanks Auntie Gail! Can't wait to catch up when we're back in Canada this Summer! 😁

[@MopokesAdventures]

Another fantastic video guys! This one has been on the bucket list for a good while. I'm thinking 2026 will be the year.

[@ChrisandDanya]

Definitely worth it! Punga Cove was amazing 😁

[@walkintomydream7208]

Love your work! Subscribed!

[@ChrisandDanya]

Thank you 🙏❤️

[@paulmason6860]

Yes! Iove seeing when you guys post a new video. Often times I have to put it in the 'tramp bank', and look forward to savoring it later my partner ;)

[@ChrisandDanya]

This one took a while to get out, but we've got a couple others on the go now!

[@daffy6474]

Another beautiful trip, we’re thinking of doing it in fall. When did you go? Thanks

[@daffy6474]

Oops! just saw the date in your description

[@ChrisandDanya]

Fall should be a great time to do it! Weather might be a bit finicky some days, but we had beautiful weather

[@potzo4265]

Hey, we'll be doing this track next month, are you allowed to fly a drone here?

[@ChrisandDanya]

You can't really fly a drone anywhere in NZ without permission. You could contact the Queen Charlotte track trust and ask them, but I'd doubt it
