Thanks for showing the hike to Roy's Peak, not sure I will be ready for it in November when I get there but WOW that view is astonishing! Will have to be a game time decision to see if I can do it or not, been training for it here in Ohio but we don't have any mountains even close to that!

We had been to Wanaka about 12 years ago, but now I realise we have to visit again, as there is so much more to see. Great overview!

Fun fact... Roys Peak toilet was put there to stop contamination from tourists walking the track( historical issues that got quite bad!) so now everyone can enjoy the magnificent views and challenging climb to one of New Zealands most beautiful spots. Well done to you both!

Loving the NZ series, you guys are ticking off so much. Roy’s Peak didn’t do that when I was in Wanaka ( I feel for you Charlotte cos I knew it was hard- but Corey you got the content took us to the top & wow it really is spectacular- but come on all of NZ is beautiful) Take me back for another road trip.

Aww thanks Lisa 🥰🥰 it was an incredible view at the top. What part of NZ are you in?

I climbed up Roy’s Peak as a 17 year old in May 1983. I was lucky enough to stay with relatives that lived nearby. Back then It was much quieter as it wasn’t well known worldwide.

Wow, thanks for sharing Bill. I bet it was wildly different back then! I bet the track was a lot narrower too

Cory climbs a mountain for hours. Then runs the last 1.3km straight up to the top. Absolute legend

How long does take to get to the picnic table spot at Roys Peak? Thinking of bringing our parents there for a quick walk for that lookout.
@cjexplores5 ай бұрын
It took about 45 mins - 1 hour to get there from the car park. It’s all uphill though 😊

Fun Fact , beware treaty propaganda - most land deals in NZ were willing-seller willing-buyer at whatever was the agreed price at the time.

Most land was confiscated by govt & sold to the public. Where did you learn your “fun facts”?

..most land sales were'willing seller, willing buyer at whatever was the agreed price, where were you brainwashed? Have you ever read anything more substantial than the Turf Digest in your life?
