Another Sunday, another mountain. This weekend we tackled Grandview Mountain on the east side of Hawea. Top tip if you're planning to climb this peak - check when it's closed for lambing. We got 300m away from the summit and couldn't reach the peak because the last section of the track was closed! 🙈

What makes the perfect hike? There's an ongoing debate about whether Isthmus Peak or Roy's Peak is better. We haven't climbed Roy's Peak yet, but after hearing about queues of people waiting to take 'that photo' at the top and DOC notices asking people not to climb it because the path is getting damaged, we're not sure if we want to. Yesterday we had an amazing time on Mount Isthmus and saw less than a dozen other people on the 5 hour hike. It's a clear winner in our eyes!

No more coal, no more oil, keep that carbon in the soil. #climatestrike #wanakaclimatestrike

We're so excited to be spending the next 5 months in Wanaka - it has to be one of our favourite places in New Zealand! What's your favourite place in NZ? A throwback to last week. Our trip up the West Coast ended with a snooze in the sun on the shore of Lake Wanaka. Bliss!
