Heaphy Track Classic Package

Out of summer Season Specials!

If you book on a Heaphy Track adventure departing between the month of May through till the end of November, with Southern Wilderness, and we will give you a nights accommodation in a great hotel in Nelson, with breakfast included before your trip! Contact us today to book your Gourmet Heaphy Experience, you can call us on 0800 666 044 free call in New Zealand, or 1800 355 768 free call from Australia. We're looking forward to hearing from you soon!

Our 4.5 and 5.5 day guided walks on the Heaphy Track are all inclusive packages - starting and returning to Nelson.  We walk the track from the north (Collingwood) end and finish 4.5 or 5.5 days later at the Kohaihai River on the West Coast. We stay each night in Department of Conservation huts where your guides prepare a fantastic gourmet meal. On our way back to Nelson we spend a night in The Alpine Lodge at St Arnaud for a taste of well-deserved luxury; an ensuite and the option of a spa before we sit down to a restaurant meal. The following day we transfer back to Nelson, arriving around 11am, just in time for any connecting flights, or an opportunity to explore Nelson further.

GOURMET GUIDED WALKS

We have become known as the gourmet guided walk company, not only because of the high standard of food that is presented, (we cater for all dietary requirements) but also the personal, relaxed and friendly style of trips we orchestrate, with an emphasis on your comfort and enjoyment of the experience. Whether it is information on the flora and fauna, conservation gems along the way or just the great company of your group and guides.

 Depending on your preference, you can opt for the Classic 4.5 day or 5.5 day option - the 5.5 day tour splits one of the longer days in half and makes for an overall easier trip.

If you want to spend Christmas or New YearsEve. with flair this year, why not try our Heaphy Track Festive Experience
