Hiking 3,000km Across New Zealand on Te Araroa

[@buffalolizard]

Cam, this is a remarkable journey. Good going!

[@Zaryn10]

Shoutout to your awesome wife/support woman. I'm an Aussie, but find NZ one of the most amazing places in the world. Well done Cam. I found your channel because I'm doing the C2C in October. I'm 62, fit, but I wanted to know what to expect.

[@AilsaPehi]

An epic journey. Thank you for sharing. You did great!. Your Maori pronounciation is beautiful.

[@CamBostock]

Took a while to get my pronunciation right but I'm glad I got there in the end.

[@kurtbennett4930]

Been waiting for this video ever since your first short on you tube. Thanks for sharing mate. 🤙🤙

[@CamBostock]

I gave up on uploading each episode to shorts as it was getting to be a bit much work while on the trail. Glad to have it all up on KZbin finally!

[@brinsentm]

You’ve inspired me to start planning my through hike on the TA. End of next year I’m coming for you. I’ll come here the day before I start to update you

[@CamBostock]

Excited for you mate!

[@azalianz1570]

That was an epic finale on 90 mile, very inspiring and thank you for sharing your journey

[@will_274]

Well done mate. Epic hike. I watched this on my big screen at home. I never noticed it was in portrait after the first couple of minutes. Was captivated by the hike and your coverage of it.

[@louisaklimentos7583]

It is so beautiful there and I love all your adventures !

[@abalone317]

I LOVED this!!! I almost cried when I saw the sunrise on your last morning....it couldn't have ended any better. Huge congrats!!

[@ervinslens]

Brilliant presentation bud, this whole video is so nicely composed and edited! 🔥🔥

[@CamBostock]

[@claudiahategan4679]

Wow! That is a lot of walking, hiking, getting wet, cold. Amazing! Great job. I am in awe. Love the beautiful scenery along the way. New Zealand is very pretty.

[@jenniferblakeney1581]

Wow, congratulations! I cannot believe how quickly you finished this trail - the daily kms you put in were astounding, with virtually no zero days! Amazing!! Great footage and filming - thanks for sharing.

Sooo remarkable Cam! Now you are fit for the PCT or CDT or the Appalachian trail, all in USA! Good on you mate…

[@senditsimon]

Well done mate. Good stuff.

[@talesfromthetrail2437]

You started just after we finished in Bluff. It’s cool to retrace our own adventure in reverse… not as speedy as you though!!

[@CamBostock]

Congrats on finishing!

[@smexybritishkiwi3206]

Wow, congrats man, what an achievement! I've been following you on insta since around day 25 so hadn't seen the days before, thanks for sharing

[@CamBostock]

[@gravyboatcookingandcamping9930]

Awesome video mate. Absolutely beautiful scenery along the way would have made it all worth it.

[@hectorjohnson2595]

[@666demonknight666]

Well done bro!

[@nomad_unknown]

Awesome documentary! What months did you do this? I'm curious since I'll be in NZ after my Antarctica work contract ends in Feb 2024.

[@CamBostock]

March, April, May

[@jonasdewaele]

Amazing!!!

[@tostacey1]

Loved the vid!

[@adamp.1732]

That's awesome! What made you choose to go NOBO? And what was the community like?

[@sramkovakarolina]

you inspire me!! In 2025 it's my turn to hike!!!

[@CamBostock]

You’ll love it!

[@mikemurtha1333]

Pretty epic, congrats. How many pairs of shoes did you go through?

[@JB_FLYA69669]

Great video you have inspired me to go here

[@CamBostock]

👌👌

[@rossmackay9819]

Champion🎉

[@ChrisGoosman-cd8mw]

Wow ...couldn't stop watching great videoing and patience tracking yourself...and you knocked the bastard off as Sir Ed would of said,

[@einavdavidovichphilosoph4133]

First time for me here on your channel and I have to say your effort and editing are AMAZING! I was thinking of trying out TA durring November, for 3 or 4 weeks maybe, and your video really inspired me to go for it. Which sections of the trail would you reccomend if you were for only limited time? I'm doing around 25 KM a day

[@CamBostock]

Nelson Lakes was my favourite!

[@boostedshuttle2231]

Un real km each day, the average person is happy with 20 plus km a day couldn't imagine doing 47km in a day let alone most days in the 40z. Fantastic effects mate. Cheers

[@normaasennord4513]

Great😊

[@Chris-bq9cq]

Did you skip the lower North Island between Whanganui and Manawatu?

[@CamBostock]

Yeah skipped a few sections, mostly road, due to time constraints.

[@andricmr]

Didn’t went through the whole video yet, but I wonder if our ways crossed at some point. I walked Sobo. Probably

[@norpriest521]

Are there wild dangerous animals anywhere in new Zealand? Just curious

[@CamBostock]

Not really! It’s pretty safe from a wildlife perspective.

[@666demonknight666]

Ah you went from South then up north, some people did it the other way around.

[@FLSTFB103]

Nicely put together. What is the weight of your load? Also, what was the date of day one?

[@CamBostock]

Around 11kg. March 1st

[@FLSTFB103]

11kg is light, have you done a vid on what gear you used?@@CamBostock

[@Vin-og2dj]

Your pronunciation of Te Araroa is pretty good for a non Māori . Cheh brutha! 🤙🏾🤙🏾

[@MargaretCraigie]

Wow! Going into the Tararua ranges with a dodgy leg to begin with! That must have been daunting. I'm guessing the night the hut was full was Nichols hut? Did you look at the view behind Dracophyllum hut? I know there are always gorgeous views in NZ, but IMHO, the helicopter pad behind Dracophyllum is the North Island giving its best shot at pretending to be the Milford track, looking down into a grand valley.

[@project_be_simple5932]

Nice video. Would be perfect if the title would be "hiking 2100km.." But thats social media ;)

[@CamBostock]

Haha, yeah that would technically accurate but probably confusing as well because the trail length is 3,000.

[@zaynalsikder9213]

Why NZ is so much beautiful that is the question? so much beauty is not fair😄🤪.....! 👍❤❤❤❤❤🇳🇿❤❤❤❤❤🇳🇿❤❤❤❤❤🇳🇿❤❤❤❤❤🇧🇩❤❤❤❤❤

[@alekboi4016]

I to made a great accomplishment, that being I just watched my longest youtube video ever.

[@CamBostock]

Thanks for watching 🥰

[@Roving0Fellow]

If this was a trail in the U.S. your trailname could well be "Swims with shoes"

[@pacha_che_ascolta_le_colline]

I think i love you

[@theyetti8811]

Thats a bit of a misleading video title.

[@_Devin_]

why is that?

[@Chris-bq9cq]

Because he skipped so much of the trail

[@memphisdepay2935]

@@_Devin_he cheated and hitch hiked lots of the roads
