Routeburn Track Guided Hike (heldag)
Beskrivning
Utforska en del av den berömda Routeburn Track, en av Nya Zeelands "Great Walks", på en dagsutflykt till den fantastiska Mt Aspiring National Park. Vandra i måttligt tempo på en led som stiger gradvis från ängar och skog mot snötäckta toppar och hör informativa kommentarer om regionen och dess flora och fauna från din expertguide. Lunch och mellanmål tillsammans med tur och retur transport från Queenstown ingår. Måste kunna klara en stadig 2-timmars lutning till Flats Hut och eventuellt en 1,5-timmars brant vandring till Falls Hut. Steniga stigar, hala ytor, ojämn mark med exponerade trädrötter, branta sluttningar och nedgångar. Gruppen måste hålla ihop så kanske halvdagsvandringen passar bättre om du inte tycker att du är i form nog?

My wife and I booked this full-day hike as part of our honeymoon. We were joined by a few other travellers in a small group for the hike. We highly recommend it! What made this day special was our guide, Angelo Georgalli. He is friendly, energetic, and caring. He knows so much about the nature and history of the lands. You could see his eyes sparkle when we spotted a few rare bird species. Also, he knew all the park rangers and staff and is a big part of the nature community there. Lastly, he frequently checked in with us to make sure we were moving at a good comfortable pace, while keeping us all on time. The views were amazing and the hike was a good challenge that pushed us.
What a joy to hear about your incredible honeymoon hike with us! 🌿 Angelo's passion for nature and his knack for spotting unique wildlife certainly add magic to the trails. We’re thrilled the challenging paths and mesmerizing views made your adventure so memorable. Do come back and explore more of New Zealand with us someday!
I booked the full-day Routeburn hike through Nomads Queenstown and it was a highlight of my trip. My guide, Angelo Georgalli, was fantastic—super knowledgeable about the nature, birds, and surroundings, which made the experience so much more interesting. Everything was really well organised, and the scenery was incredible—waterfalls, forest, and amazing views up towards the saddle. We even had a bit of rain which made it more fun and adventurous. Highly recommend!
It warms my heart to hear about your remarkable Routeburn hike with Angelo! His deep understanding of nature truly enhances the thrill of such adventures. I'm delighted that the day's organization and the stunning scenery left a deep impression on you. A touch of rain indeed adds an extra layer of fun and adventure!
Luke was an amazing tour guide! No one else showed up from the group so he did the tour for me solo and was very accommodating about going whatever pace I wanted / stopping when I wanted to. Snacks provided were good and views were incredible all day even in the rain - saw rainbow on the drive in and back too!
How wonderful to hear about your solo adventure with Luke! His ability to adapt and personalise the tour, especially in unplanned circumstances, truly reflects his passion and dedication. I'm glad you enjoyed the snacks along with those breathtaking views, which include a touch of magic with rainbows!
What a phenomenal experience. Not only was the drive to the hike filled with epic scenery that literally did not feel real, but the hike itself was also breathtakingly beautiful. Our guide Angelo was so informative, kind, funny, and just a genuinely compassionate human being. I could not have asked any more from the tour, the group of people on the tour, and the guide. I highly suggest that you book this adventure during your trip to New Zealand. I can’t wait to do it again.
What a joy to read about your phenomenal journey with Angelo! The epic scenery and breathtaking hike you described sound like moments worth cherishing. It fills us with pride to know that Angelo's informative and compassionate guidance turned your adventure into something truly special.
Sure you could drive yourself there…. And do the walk on your own. And bring your own lunch …But going with group and guide was much more fun. The walk itself is easy. We are a group of 4 mid to late fifties friends. Not exactly in the prime of our lives - and it felt like a vigorous stroll. Aidan our guide was good for a chat - answered all our daft questions and drive us there and back in comfort. I think some of the info on here and on the direct website is a bit misleading. We were out and about from qtown for 8 hours including about 5 of walking - i dont recall the steep incline or decline mentioned in the brochure ?
I really had a great time. The 2 lady guides were fantastic! Very knowledgeable and helpful. Such a beautiful scenery and track. I highly recommend the tour.
It’s truly wonderful to hear how much you enjoyed your time with our fantastic lady guides. Their expertise and commitment to making your experience special really shine through your words. The blend of beautiful scenery and knowledgeable guidance creates such an unforgettable journey, doesn't it?
What a wonderful days walking on the Routeburn Track. Pick up from the hotel was by our guide Angelo. Once everyone had been picked up Angelo gave us an overview of the route and pointed out things of interest on the drive to the start point. The route itself was a gentle uphill walk for the first five miles and then quite a bit steeper for one and a half miles to the Falls Hut. The scenery was stunning and the forest enchanting. Along the way Angelo stopped to explain how the forest had evolved and what the plants were. He also had an extensive knowledge of the bird life in the forest. He was a very good guide constantly checking that everyone was ok and encouraging us. A Fantastic experience, one I’ll never forget, thank you Angelo.
It’s truly fantastic to read about your unforgettable walk along the Routeburn Track with Angelo! His passion for sharing the wonders of the forest and his deep knowledge about the local flora and fauna really seem to have made your experience memorable. The journey sounds delightful, from the gentle rise of the path to the stunning scenery and enchanting forest.
This was an amazing day! Our guide, Angelo, was incredibly knowledgeable about all the plants, mosses and birds in this incredible beech tree forest that you hike through to get to the 2nd part of the hike where you go up to near the origin of the Routeburn River. This was a reasonable long hike at about 13 miles with elevation gain around 3,000 feet. It was slow and steady so no real killer elevation gains - just a fairly steady uphill hike. It is an up and back, and there are amazing vistas along the way.
It’s wonderful to dive into your detailed account of the journey with Angelo through the stunning beech tree forest! His deep knowledge of the local flora and fauna truly adds such richness to the hike, doesn’t it? Those steady uphill climbs offering breathtaking vistas sound like they were worth every step. We appreciate you sharing your experience on this memorable day exploring the origins of the Routeburn River.
Angelo G was the best guide, patient, encouraging and so knowledgeable. He took the time to explain bird sounds and all the fauna. So many beautiful plants!! Loved Angelo and the hike is stunning!!
Angelo truly made your hike an exceptional experience! It's fantastic to hear how his patience and knowledge added a special touch to the breathtaking surroundings. His passion for explaining the intricate details of bird sounds and flora clearly resonated with you, bringing the beauty of the trail to life. We’re so glad you loved the journey and the stunning nature, filled with those vibrant plants.
Lucas from Nomad Safaris guided our small group along parts of the Routeburn Track. We walked to Routeburn Falls hut and had a great time. Lucas was knowledgeable about the area, flora and fauna. We learned to identify some bird species and trees. The day included pick-up and return to Queenstown in a minibus. Thanks Lucas! Could highly recommend this tour and guide.
What a wonderful account of your adventure with Lucas on the Routeburn Track! Hearing how his expertise enriched your experience brings a smile to our faces. It sounds like the day was filled with insightful moments, from identifying local bird species and trees to soaking in the scenic beauty at Routeburn Falls. The convenience of the minibus pick-up surely adds to the seamless experience. We greatly appreciate your kind words and recommendation. Thank you for choosing us, and we hope every step offered a new discovery and joy!
