► ABOUT THIS HIKE
In January 2024 I hiked 200 kilometers in the heart of the Southern Alps on the South Island of New Zealand. I combined several routes into a continuous 7-day route, including the Cascade Saddle Route, Rees-Dart, Earnslaw Burn, Routeburn and Greenstone-Caples.

Interested in doing this hike? Check out the travel guide (https://store.harmenhoek.com/products/guide-backpacking-the-most-scenic-trails-in-new-zealand-7-14-days) to explore this custom route. The guide has a flexible 7-14 day itinerary split into 6 stages. It explains everything you need to know: how to get there, where to camp, where to stay in huts, when to go, the weather, and much more. Included are Custom Google Maps and GPX files.
