Ep 09 - Haast to Makarora [The West Coast ends here]

We leave the West Coast of New Zealand and travel across the Haast Pass to Makarora. There is so much to see between these two locations, and we were so lucky the weather turned it for us (that is it was raining and we got see all the waterfalls). We get to check out most of these on our way and finish up at the beautiful Blue Pools.
If your new to our channel we are Sam, Chris and "Winnie" (Cavalier King Charles). We have taken time out of our busy 9-5 corporate lives, leaving our jobs in teaching and aviation behind to live full time in our UK Swift Celebration 645 caravan, travelling and exploring the South Island, New Zealand.
Sharing our experiences of its suitability to NZ conditions and our travels. Expect some mishaps along the way, plenty of cycling & walking trails and those place's least visited through geocaching and adventure labs.

Such a beautiful area Mike, remember if you want to go for fish n chips at Jackson Bay they stop taking orders at 2.45pm and close at 3pm. I would also allow all day to drive over Haast Pass and stop off everywhere and do all the tracks, although you guys will be able to stay at Pleasant Flat DOC camp, well worth it, then there’s Cameron’s Flat DOC camp from there you can do the track into Blue Pools and continue up the track after there..
