Heaphy & Hippie

For the past four days, I stayed in a hippie hostel. Even though I did not go hippie, the relaxed atmosphere still made me sit back and do nothing much but short strolls on the river and beach during the first one and a half days.

Yesterday, I went to the Oparara Basin, as already mentioned before. Today, I finally did a three-hours-long stroll on Heaphy Track.

This short visit gave me a short insight into this track, and I could see why it is that popular.

But also my lazy days around Karamea were really enjoyable: The nearly endless beach is really nice, and I also enjoyed relaxing a bit – it is a holiday, after all!
