Adventure Trekking NZ

Day 3

We camped two days at this hut normally it would have been one.
It was many years ago when Rob I and the boys stayed in the little hut there are photos still on the wall which I took on that trip
 yesterday we rode up the valley which was lovely, today we move on to the next hut



Packing up in the morning, tacking up takes time










After several hours of trekking we crossed the river for a grassy spot where the horses could graze while we eat our lunch, plenty of banks available for us to get back on!!


Breeze has been such a lovely horse to ride


Rob having his lunch while Tussock has a back shoe sorted


John shoeing Tussock 




The last hut Was quite small,  several people slept in tents or under the stars! 



All the tack and packs laid out ready for tack up



Rob and Tussock ready


Lots of river crossing today, the landscape has changed from open scape to gorge and rocky Terrain 





Nearing St Bathans conventional farmland now.



Riding into St Bathans at the end of the trek 
It was such a lovely ride through amazing countryside.
