*please note price is in USD and I can’t change the currency* And please note the guide is IN PROGRESS. Purchasing gives you all updates, and I’m spending a lot of time to update most days. Currently you can view the waypoints. Track descriptions are being added daily. Not all tracks have descriptions yet. Descriptions include info on track conditions and terrain and how our kids of various stages found it. A guide to the Hut of New Zealand, with children in tow! Get reliable information on which hikes (With a focus on overnight) are great for kids, as well as specific child-friendly information on them. This is designed to be a parents guide and works great as an accompaniment to our My Overnight Adventure Journal, available in both Te Ika-a-Māui and Te Waipounamu, in hard print for the kids to take with on your adventures. Map Key: STAY symbol -DOC or other hut. GO symbol - Drive-to DOC or similar hut. (May be 4wd accessible) DO symbol - Walk-to camp ground. Either wild camping, or proper DOC tramping campground with toilets. Child friendly ratings explained: 5 stars: Easy shorter track, simple enough that most first timers can visit, and kids of all ages can visit (with some carrying needed for younger ages) Suitable for beginner/ never ever tramped before parents to take never ever tramped before kids. 4 stars: Easy spot to visit, however caveats exist. Eg. Big river crossing, not having a 4wd makes the track harder, there is a dodgy section, or track is on the longer side. Sometimes it is because despite the hut being very easily accessible, it’s in poor condition, and you’d need a tent to stay here, making it a less than ideal trip. 3 stars: Might not make a great first trip, but is a track kids will enjoy. Still relatively child friendly, but will need adults that have overnight hiked in a variety of terrain before, and are capable of decision making on the trip. Kids under 4 will likely need carried for sections. 2 stars: Not super child friendly, but still enjoyable for capable kids. Kids under 5 will likely need to be carried for sections. 5 year olds would need to have done several trips to be capable. But could be a first time trip for average 10yo+ 1 star: Older and fit kids 8-12+ will enjoy these. They’re not great first trips, but if you’re experienced, you could take an older more capable kid here as a first trip if you’re prepared to take all day. 0 stars: I likely won’t add these to the map, but these would be huts not recommended even for experienced kids. At the start, this map will have a bunch of locations that are child friendly, and I will add descriptive text as time goes on. For now some are missing descriptive text. Buying the guide now ensures you will get all the updates. This includes text and images, as it is updated in real time. Your support of the guide in these early stages ensures that I can continue writing the content. It will also be published in a hard copy physical book once ready.

Northland is the northernmost of NZ's 16 regions. Come and immerse yourself in the pure beauty of New Zealand's sub-tropical paradise. Explore Maori culture, the world's largest Kauri tree, pristine beaches, lush meadows boasting a striking shade of green found nowhere else and the Bay of Islands awaiting you with secluded beaches, dolphins and whales. The Winterless North is a treasure trove of hidden gems and off the beaten path places, where countless rainbows await. My guide includes 104 locations shown on an interactive map, the most beautiful places to visit, off the beaten path and hidden gem spots. The main focus of my guide is on outdoor nature places but also provides accommodation recommendations including free camps, places to eat and what to do. I've visited all of these places myself (except some hotels and restaurants) during the more than 2 years that I lived in NZ. If you have time and you're doing a roadtrip you can just follow the route or simply pick out the places you like most.

My comprehensive guide provides you with everything you need to know to spend some beautiful days on the Banks Peninsula. Due to its proximity to Christchurch, this is the perfect place for a weekend getaway (or longer). It includes general information, recommendations on where to stay, the best places to eat, what to do and beautiful spots around the Peninsula. I experienced it a as very relaxing and peaceful place, perfect to calm down but without getting bored, far away from the hustle and bustle of the city.

Auckland's West Coast is often overlooked by travellers as you need a car to reach it and explore everything. When I visited, it exceeded my expectations and I fell in love with this rugged and wild coastline. The West Coast is part of the Waitakere Ranges Regional Park and is home to stunning black sand beaches, lush rainforest with waterfalls, one of NZ's most popular surf beaches and a gannet colony. It is not far from Auckland but you will feel like entering a completely different world. This remote and untamed region is more than worth a visit and will for sure casts its spell over you. A magical place that you should not miss out on and that can also be explored on a day trip if you have a tight schedule.

West of Hamilton and just 2 hours from Auckland, NZ's surf town is a great escape if you're looking for a getaway from the hustle and bustle of the city.

Planning a trip to Queenstown and don't know where to stay? Here is a local's guide to a curated selection of the most modern, contemporary hotels in Queenstownfor for different budgets.

This itinerary outlines nine days of continuous adventure on the North Island of New Zealand. Spend a couple days exploring Auckland and the nearby islands, head out west for some black sand beaches and secret coves, hit up some insane hiking trails, and head to the east coast for some stunning beaches that draw the local crowds all summer. This itinerary is partially in hotels, but most of it is geared towards campervanning or rooftop tenting it through the North Island (that's what we did & LOVED it). It also includes a few hours of driving a day, and quite a few hiking opportunities (of course these can be substituted for other activities in the area). If you don't want to drive as much you could always spread the activities over more days, or skip your least favourite part to spend more time in the other areas ... but good luck trying to choose! Each day outlines activities to fill your day, how much driving, what to eat, where to stay, and other suggestions / information. This itinerary covers the following specific places: -> Auckland -> Waiheke Island -> Hobbiton -> Marakopa -> New Plymouth (Mt Taranaki) -> Tongariro National Park -> Lake Taupo -> Coromandel Peninsula -> Coromandel Forest Park & so much more! Note: if you're interested in doing both North and South Island in one trip, you should definitely consider purchasing our 3 week itinerary (found on our thatch home page) as it includes all of this same information & everything on the South Island!
