The 2013 Tramping camp will be tramping the South Coast track and includes a spectacular jetboat ride across Lake Hauroko.
The plan is:
- Friday 13th December – Those traveling from further a field are welcome to stay the night in Gore.
- Saturday 14th December – start tramping early from Rarakau carpark to Port Craig Hut (7 hours, 20km) where we will stay the night.
- Sunday 15th December – tramp from Port Craig Hut through to Wairaurahiri Hut (6 hours, 16km)
- Monday 16th December – day trip to Waitutu Hut (or as close as we can get before we need to turn back to the Wairaurahiri Hut for Monday night).
- Tuesday 17th December – meet the Wairaurahiri Jet at 1430hrs at the Wairaurahiri Hut for a ride to Lake Hauroko road end – the boat ride lasts 90 minutes and is one of the most spectacular jet boat trips in the world as we climb 180metres of altitude over 34kms of Grade 3 rapids
