Your Experience
I love it all!! If I had to pick I'd say Northcliffe through Walpole due to the diversity of landscapes with its sweeping grasslands, ancient granite outcrops, incredible forests and the first welcoming view of the mighty southern ocean.
Highlight of your trip
Thunderous continuous rain booming on the shelter roof at Boardinghouse. Wow!
