IT was autumn when, fresh from the summer tramping season, I decided to hike the beautiful Hollyford Track in Fiordland National Park. It was an epic four-day journey with a pre-booked jetboat ride back along the lengthy finger lake known as Lake McKerrow, or Whakatipu Waitai, to shorten the return trip.
I tramped the nine kilometres up from the end of the Lower Hollyford Road to the beautiful Hidden Falls, a walk of about two to three hours, and went on the nearby Pyke River swing bridge, the longest swingbridge in the National Park.
I spent the night at the Hidden Falls Hut, and woke early to see a beautiful low-lying fog blanketing the valley — what a majestic sight for only my second day on the Hollyford!
