Randonnée côtière d'une journée à Godley Head avec déjeuner pique-nique
Description
Profitez d'une superbe promenade guidée le long de la Godley Head Loop Track, l'une des randonnées les plus époustouflantes de Christchurch. Votre Guide vient vous chercher à votre logement et vous transporte à Taylors Mistake Beach, où l'aventure commence. Admirez des vues de classe mondiale en traversant l'ancien cratère d'un volcan éteint et profitez de l'une des plus belles côtes de Nouvelle-Zélande avec un Guide local expérimenté. Cette piste en boucle bien entretenue s'étend sur 8 à 10 km (5 à 6 miles) et prend environ 3 heures à compléter, ce qui laisse beaucoup de temps pour s'imprégner du paysage. Des boissons chaudes dans un café local, des collations matinales et un déjeuner gastronomique en pique-nique sont tous inclus. En chemin, vous verrez des monuments historiques récemment restaurés de la Seconde Guerre mondiale, une cabane antarctique, une colonie de manchots et de charmantes petites cabanes. Visitez Boulder Bay, une plage isolée avec vue sur Pegasus Bay et les majestueuses Alpes du Sud. Les observations de faune peuvent inclure des phoques, des dauphins et des oiseaux indigènes. Cette visite d'une journée commence et se termine à Christchurch City.

Itinéraire
Après la prise en charge à l'hôtel, votre guide vous divertira avec l'histoire de Christchurch pendant le trajet de 20 minutes jusqu'à Sumner Beach dans une camionnette de 12 places. Ici, vous dégusterez une boisson chaude sur la terrasse d'un café en bord de mer avec vue sur l'océan et Cave Rock. C'est un magnifique point de repère et un bon début de journée.
Votre prochain arrêt est Taylors Mistake Beach (10 minutes en voiture), une magnifique plage de surf de sable noir, avec de petites plages pittoresques. Ici, votre guide vous distribuera des sacs à dos, des bâtons, un déjeuner, des bouteilles d'eau et des collations et vous préparera pour la promenade.
Les trois prochaines heures seront consacrées à parcourir le Godley Head Loop Track, l'une des plus belles randonnées de Christchurch. Les sites touristiques incluent Scott's Hutt (une cabane antarctique), des emplacements d'armes à feu de la Seconde Guerre mondiale, une colonie de manchots et des vues côtières dans toutes les directions. Le pique-nique sera dégusté sur une plage isolée le long du chemin avec des cabanes historiques, où nous rencontrons souvent des animaux sauvages tels que des phoques, des dauphins et de nombreux oiseaux. Votre promenade retourne à Taylors Mistake Beach, pour un retour relaxant à votre lieu de prise en charge.

Nicole was a great tour guide, she was very professional, on time, easy to talk to and knowledgeable. We were pleasantly surprised with the early beach spot , which was an excellent way to start. Riharri was also a great guide and provided an Moriori perspective that was very valuable to us All in all a wonderful experience which I would highly recommend
Thank you, so great to hear you enjoyed your day with Nicole & Rihari, feedback much appreciated.
Highly recommended for nature lovers! Nicole decided to push through with this walk even though I am a solo traveller. That alone already made me special. She was very accommodating and light hearted I did not even feel I was walking for 2 and a half hours. She was also excellent in taking stunning photos which added to the quality of this walk. Healthy snacks and hearty lunch were also served. Godley Head and Crater Rim Walk turns out to be one of my highlights while in Christchurch and is definitely worth multiple tries.
Thank you Reggie! It was really fun spending the day with you, and it's so nice to hear it was a highlight for you. I hope the rest of your trip goes really well - come back again soon! Nicole
This full day walking tour was wonderful, for two main reasons. 1) Our guide Ita was a delight, very pleasant and kind, a good listener, and full of knowledge. 2) The weather was absolutely perfect, it could not have been better! The pace of the walk could have been a little slower, but then that’s an individual preference. A yummy morning tea and lunch was supplied. Thoroughly recommend this guided walking tour.
Thanks so much, so glad you enjoyed the day with Ita:-)
We did a 6-hour excursion with our wonderful guide, Heidi, today. It exceeded our expectations and the photos don’t really do it justice. The whole experience was just perfect with amazing views and a really enjoyable tramp along the coastline.
Thank you this is lovely to hear. All the best with the rest of your time in NZ.
This was an incredibly beautiful, 6 mile hike along the permitter of a volcano crater and Godley Head. Our super friendly hike leader Dee gave us historical and cultural information. of the ares. A delicious picnic lunch was also served along with group photos sent to us after the hike. Kudos yo Crater Rim Walks in Christ Church!
Thanks so much! Glad to hear you had a great time with Dee and also enjoyed the lunch and photos.
The hike was longer and harder than described. The views were wonderful! Definitely needed the hiking poles at points.
Thank you for your feedback, we will take that onboard, so glad you enjoyed it despite it being harder than expected.
A great day out hiking around Godley Head with Kate as our guide and a lovely American couple. The views were amazing and the whole day reminded us of how much we enjoy hiking. We were due to do the half day hike, however, due to circumstances, ended up doing the full day - a fortunate twist of circumstances for us, as this is now the option we would thoroughly recommend! The experience was very relaxed and the detour on the way back past Littleton port was a great addition. Thank you so much for a wonderful day!
Thanks so much for your review, so glad you enjoyed the longer version of the walk and your time on the Crater Rim!
My husband and I did the Crater Rim Walk with Nicole and it was amazing! It was a perfect day and we had a great time. She was very knowledgeable, accommodating and friendly. We felt very relaxed throughout the day and were able to take the walk at our own pace. I would highly recommend this tour if you are looking to do the Crater Rim Walk with an expert who helps guide you through the trail and makes sure you feel comfortable.
Thank you, it was lovely to meet you both!
great hike with breath taking views, a fun lunch and interesting history about the area. Highly recommend
Thank you!
An excellent day. Picked up at our hotel, scenic drive, beach stop, great day hike about 6 miles, beautiful scenery. Lots of interesting info from our guide about the area and history. Great packed lunch.
Thank you Sally! Glad to hear you had a great day on your Crater Rim adventure:-)
