T&KonTour
Tuesday 15 March, Queenstown to Te Anau
We leave most of our clothes and bags at the St James Apartments before driving 2 hours south to the little town of Te Anau. On the way we stop at the village of Athol for lunch at the Brown Trout Café.
Te Anau is our pickup point for the Hollyford Track so we only take what we need on the trail, plus traveling clothes which we leave in the car for 3 days. We assemble at the Fiordland Cinema (they spell it differently around here) for a briefing on the track and some of us collect back packs. After an Italian dinner we return to the motel to pack, remembering that we will be carrying everything on our back, for the first 20km on day 1 at least.
