Routeburn Guided Walking Tour from Queenstown
Rated one of the world’s “Top Ten Classic Hikes”, the Routeburn Track is a must-do. This track combines personal achievement in addition to awe-inspiring scenery to make this trip unmissable. Surrounded by rivers, waterfalls and native birds, you will be transported to a world of peace. In other words, this is the ultimate alpine adventure that you can share with your guide.
Sit back and relax whilst you travel along the scenic road to Glenorchy and through Paradise to the Routeburn Track. Cross over the swing bridge and be immersed in nature. There are plenty of waterfalls to enjoy and lots of places to rest along the river. The trail is moderately paced, rising gradually towards stunning snow-capped peaks.
You can choose a relaxed half day hike or the more strenuous full day hike.
