About

Itinerary: Friday 9th Feb - Travel to Turangi Holiday Park. Overnight accommodation Saturday 10th Feb - 5.45am pickup for transport to the start of the track. The awesomeness begins :) There will be shuttle buses at the other end of the track back to the holiday park every hour from 2pm and the last one departing at 5pm. That evening, we usually have a bbq or use the kitchen to cook and socialise. Overnight accomodation again at the holiday park Sunday - leave holiday park ------------------------ Cost details: $87 per person which includes a shared cabin at Turangi Holiday Park and shuttle transport to and from the track on Saturday. Please provide your own linen (sleeping bags should be OK). If you wish to stay in a cabin by yourself, please ask Turangi Holiday park for costs (we have already organised discounted costs for the cabins which will not be available if you choose to stay solo) ------------------------ What you need to do?

They have access to the registration details. You will need to complete payment over the phone with the holiday park (either by Debit/Credit Card or organise bank transfer) ---------------------- Notes: Weather on the crossing can change suddenly throughout the day.
