I think if you're heading into McKenzie region you should allow at least 3 nights so that you can spend time at the lakes and Mt Cook. Weather can be pretty temperamental too so adding an extra day or two for that can be good too. If you enjoy hiking a lot you might even want to stay at Mt Cook they offer nice accommodation just a lil on the pricey side.

In the year 2000, when a friend and I did the Ball Pass crossing with the late mountain guide Erica Beuzenberg, she referred to those spiky plants as the "Horrid Spaniard". Erica tragically died, along with 2 clients, when one of the clients slipped while descending from Ball Pass, and all 3 that were roped together slid to their deaths.

We edit on Adobe premiere pro 😁 thanks for watching

loved this vlog. Got to catchup more on the series but thank you for bringing the flavours of nature from down under. Do you have and did you encounter any wildlife in NZ natural reserves? In Canada, in the Rockies, I need to watch out for the Bears...

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it and hope you like the other vlogs in the series too 😊 it was an epic road trip! The wild life here is much more tame hahaha cute little penguins, dolphins, fur seals (though you need to keep your distance with those too), and all the cool and unique native birds 😊

Lovely video.. As always.. You guys are fortunate to live in New Zealand.. Would you like to visit the Dilmah Tea Lounge? Heard that they have delicious Sri Lankan tea and food. I think you guy will love it. 😊😊
