Events
Take the road less travelled. We guide only small groups (max 5) on our New Zealand trekking adventures. Let us take you on a true NZ wilderness trek - where no one else can. From seriously tough multi-day alpine treks to easier, family-orientated hiking and camping, we provide a true wilderness experience.
The wild and remote nature of New Zealand's landscape and weather means that, for most people, backcountry travel is limited to a few well established walking trails. While these popular tracks are often called "The Great Walks" they are not necessarliy the best walks - just the most well known ones!
Based out of Wanaka and Queenstown, our Treks explore the lesser travelled corners of the Mt Aspiring National Park and the South West World Heritage Area - where the scenery is always spectacular, and the challenges many.
Come and join us for a Trek in the unique NZ wilderness - join a scheduled trek or book a private trip now!
Let’s go to the peak of adventure.
This is the real world. Come and see it for yourself—dip your toes into adventure and sink your teeth these incredible places.
