Description

 

NOTE: Confirmed for Saturday with fine weather!

This is an exploration of part of the Link Pathway (walking and cycling) between Havelock and Picton. This looks to be the most scencic part following an old bridle track so well away from the road in most places but with views over the Sounds plus interesting native bush. Check the links below.

Here are the individual track sections. It is an Easy/Medium walk on a well-graded track. Total below is 15 km which would be less than 6 hours with breaks (Say 9.30  am to 3.30pm). It could be shortened by not doing the first section (Flat) or the final descent to SB. Let me know if you have any reservations.. With two cars loads, we will do a cross-over/key swap. 

We may even leave time for a coffee in Havelock on the way back to Nelson (about 1 hours drive)?
