The 4th instalment of my Great Walks series in New Zealand. Welcome to episode 4 the Lake Waikaremoana Track!
Total Distance: 46km (28.5mi) Total Days: 4
Located on the North Island of New Zealand.
Day 1: Whanganui Hut - Waiharuru Campsite
6km (3.7mi). Approx 2hrs.
Day 2: Waiharuru Campsite - Korokoro Campsite
14km (8.7mi). Approx 5.5hrs + Side Trip to Korokoro Falls 1hr return
Day 3: Korokoro Campsite - Panekire Hut
12km (7.5mi). Approx 4.5hrs
Day 4: Panekire Hut to Onepoto Shelter.
9km. (5.6mi) Approx 4.5hrs
We drove down from Auckland and stayed at the Lake Waikaremoana Holiday Park the night prior. The next morning we drove to Onepoto Carpark/Shelter where we met the water taxi who dropped us off at the decommissioned Whanganui Hut. This way we could spend the next 4 days walking back to the car and our packs were lighter for the accent on day 3.

Oh Hayley, your creative acumen and skills continue to astound me. What a fantastic production and story of your time with Cindy. Full marks to her for taking the trail on as a novice and I thank her for introducing the word ‘photocopy’ to my lexicon of profanities. It’s a real goody. Congratulations again on your unique ability to bring your audience along with you for your hikes.

@settohike 3 месяца назад

I can still see it, the misty rain, cold fingers. Then out it comes the piercing word 'photocopy' 😛 Thank you Mike!! 😊

Cindy was everything I needed (that I didn't know I needed) in my reconnaissance from the couch. How thoroughly classic. :)

Absolutely stunning trail and video, definitely added to the “One Day” list. Well done for getting out there and giving it a go, Cindy. Another incredible video, Hayley. Always in awe at your content

I'm more of an aspiring hiker than an actual hiker so I really relate to Cindy. What a great video as always

@settohike 4 месяца назад

She did comment after that if she can do it anyone can! Thank you for watching 😊

@littwond 4 месяца назад

Thanks Hayley for another fantastic video. As a 60 year old hiker I absolutely loved Cindy's contribution, I could really relate. I completed the Milford and Routeburn tracks in March and I'm pretty sure I used ALL the profanities OFTEN but now I can add photocopy to the list. Keep up the great work and I'll keep adding these hikes to my to do list.

Go Cindy, I started hiking at 60, 2 years ago and seeing all Cindy’s beginner hiking angst makes me smile knowingly, my body! that stiffness. I love my hiking now. Yay that you have Hayley, my beginner hikes were all solo ones. I made so many mistakes 😂😂😂

@Brenda-tv8tx 4 месяца назад

This was so soothing to watch. Production was top notch and it felt more like a short documentary than a youtube video! Love the Cindy cam, good to know I'm not the only one blasting profanities to the earth.

@settohike 4 месяца назад

Aww thank you! My filming/editing self is very happy to hear that! 😊 Hahah I can only imagine the profanities I missed out on while we were hiking separately 😂

Hi, I'm a 58yo aussie lady just starting hiking and using some of your advice to get my gear together to keep things light. Seeing your future MIL and sites of NZ was fantastic to watch!!! Thankyou Cindy for the laughs!!! I'm a bum scooter too. ❤️ your films Hayley!

Brilliant Hayley great story telling and fantastic footage awareness. As a seasoned crusty old hiker I love seeing your creativity in this space. Greta work. Think someone on main stream media should give you a go with a crew to do a getaway style show!

Hey Hayley, nice vid and seemed like a fun adventure. I found your channel to learn about load lifter straps then ended up watching a few vids. Good stuff. The voice over works well you've inspired me to try some different techniques in my vids. Check it out for some south Island wilderness goodness. Hikers out 🏞️🏕️👌🏽

Gotta give up for the old bag! She had a pack on her back that you could fit half of Bunnings and Aldi in and she still took it on: RESPECT!!

Hayley…. Thank you for sharing this. I have followed you on Instagram and got all the walks and hikes ideas from just watching you. I always love bushwalking. I do most half day and full day hikes, when I was younger i used to go jungle trekking in Sumatra. Now i am back on this outdoor activity again after I discovered your videos. Absolutely loving your content. Thank you again and have an awesome time 💚💚

Your series on NZ walks is killer. Helping me with my wish list of future walks! Hadnt really consided Lake Waikaremoana before. Out of interest, you should check out the 'Around the Mountain Circuit'. Its not a 'great walk of NZ', but its meant to be really good. 4 to 5 days around Mt Taranaki including an acent if you wanted to. Did the Mt summit a few years ago but didnt know about the circuit at the time. P.s. - Cindy is a legend

@settohike 3 месяца назад

Thank you! 🙏 I'm hoping to hibernate this winter so I can catch up on NZ video editing! Thanks for this suggestion, I absolutely loved the whole volcanic area of Tongariro so i'm sure I'd love it. I'm putting together a list of some more NZ hikes on my next visit so i'll add this!

thanks Hayley, I really loved seeing the environment you and Cindy were hiking in. Loved, loved, loved Cindy, she is a classic (in the best way possible) and well done to her completing a 4 day hike as a beginner. Hayley, I also enjoyed you relaying the history of the trail. Thanks Lisa

@Vegemite2k 4 месяца назад

This was a hilarious video, this is the same things that happens when I take my non hiking mates out, (either walk alone or with slow people for me) 😂 The "definitely not me calculating how our slow pace is gonna affect us on the long days 😐😐😐" is every time I'd stop 😂

@settohike 4 месяца назад

haha normally id prefer slow people considering I stop every 2 seconds to film but I must of had a lot of energy on that hike 😛 It's funny you quote that part because I was almost going to cut it out, but you are the second person to mention it! 😂

I had booked to do this hike a few years ago with my daughter, but like you Hayley we had to cancel due to a terrible weather pattern. You have re-inspired me to do it but this time it might be solo.

Oh wow....hiking with a potential mum in law. Very brave, but you got a comedy routine out of it! Now that I've enjoyed the laughs I need watch it again and actually focus on the track! How would you rate it against the other great walks? I've read comments that it's great"ish" but not great.

@settohike 4 месяца назад

Hahah yes I was pretty happy to have 2 storylines going for this video. One for Cindy and one for the track! I actually really liked the track and think it's very deserving of being a great walk in terms of the actual hike and what you see. (You can tell that some of the signs need a bit of a facelift) I also heard that people think the Panekire Hut is run down but coming from Australia any hut in New Zealand is a cool novelty 😂 I am more of a lake/river girl than ocean so that persuades me a bit though. I did like it better than the Rakiura great walk!! 😊
