Abel Tasman Nationalpark

This National Park is the smallest and most visited New Zealand. The 51 km hike is one of nine Great Walks in Neuseeland.

Since I've already taken one of these walks behind me, the Milford TrackI thought to myself that it is sufficient if I make only a portion of 3-5 days Walks 😉

Like everything else in New Zealand, everything is very well organized here and it offered a lot of possibilities. The Shuttelboote create very many sections and you can select as many nights you want to spend in the cottages or at the campsites.

So it went with the boat past the apple rocks up in the Anchorage Bay. Walking back to Marahau there are scarce then 13 km, but which really do not seem very far due to the insanely beautiful landscape.

The colors of the crystal clear water harmonize really well with those of the trees, especially now in the fall. In most locations, this section has a view of the island Adele. There are always at the very well-marked path branches to beaches where you can at least enjoy a picnic at the now already rather cooler water temperatures.

Always impressive is also the flora of New Zealand, especially good, I like the giant ferns.

Even near the end of the walk then you reach the Sandy Bay, which offers a fascinating landscape of sand at low tide which is also walkable.

The Abel Tasman National Park with its beautiful beaches is perfect for work one of the most popular but now in autumn, quasi low season you really find peace and because of its size you meet only now and then to other tourists.
