Join us for an unforgettable five-day adventure into New Zealand’s stunning backcountry! Starting from CYC Waihola on Wednesday afternoon, we’ll travel to Lakeland Park Christian Camp near Queenstown before heading into the spectacular Caples Valley. Our base for three nights will be the Upper Caples Hut, giving us access to explore the nearby McKellar Saddle, and optional side trips like Kaye Creek, Steele Creek, or Emily Creek.

This is a true wilderness experience: carrying packs, cooking together, and soaking up God’s creation in one of the South Island’s most beautiful alpine valleys. We’ll return via the same track on Sunday, with a flexible plan for either a late drive home or an extra night at Lakeland Park, depending on group energy and weather.

If you’re up for the challenge and keen to grow in resilience, teamwork, and your relationship with God in the outdoors, we’d love to hear from you!
