ITINERARY
Day One:
Arrive at The Great Glenorchy Alpine Base Camp and get settled in. You’ll meet your guide who will brief you in and check your gear. We have a licensed wood-fired restaurant ‘Base Camp Food Over Fire’, sauna, cosy mountaineer’s huts — everything you might need for a good night’s sleep ahead of tomorrow’s adventure.
Day Two:
4×4 to your remote traditional campsite which you will help set up. Then enjoy a quick meal before you head off on a hike through the mossy Beech forest into the alpine zone. While its all about the journey, today’s destination is nothing short of spectacular. A vast alpine watershed with countless waterfalls and incredible views. After taking in the scenery, hike back to your camp for a swim ahead of your evening meal and well earned rest.
Day Three:
Up early to head off in a different direction on another tramping experience altogether. After your hike, break camp and help pack up the Defender, then back to The Great Glenorchy Alpine Base Camp for a shower, sauna, debrief, dinner & drinks before retiring to your cosy mountain hut.
Day Four:
Breakfast and take your time checking out in the morning, transfers to Queenstown Airport are available if required.
FITNESS
Moderate fitness is required for your adventure. We recommend at least 6 weeks of regular walks carrying a 5-8kg backpack. If your hiking boots are new, breaking them in during this training period is recommended to save discomfort in the field.
