Mt Aspiring National Park
Exploring the outstanding wild and remote landscape of New Zealand through the lesser-travelled corners of Mt Aspiriring National Park, challenges many, even more so for me personally! And a challenge is just what I am after= Gillespie Pass. Nearly 60km covered during a 3 days tramping adventure with the highest point being 1610m above sea level. We will be surrounded by stunning New Zealand scenery. It starts in dense native rain forest and steadily climbs into wondrous spectacular alpine paradise which consists of challenging steep climbs, high peaks, spectacular waterfalls, roaring canyons, hanging snowfields, open meadows, breath-taking views of the southern alps/ Mounts Alba, Awful, and Dreadful, testing river crossing, unusual geographic wonders carved by the glaciers, ancient Beech forest and open river flats.
Having never taken part in any tramping before, this experience will test both
my survival and physical skills through strength, energy and ultimately my
lack of balance. This challenge will take place during March 15, 16, 17 2013.
What an amazing challenge to be a part off!
