Only had a day walk to Katipo Creek shelter and back to Kohaihai campsite but would def do the whole track one day - amazing views, beaches, forest - very unique part of South Island - a must do!

Cathedral Caves Walk
4.5/5
Great experience, we went around 10am (it is only open in low tide) and for $5pp it is a 15 min walk to the wide beach and the caves - when we came back to the car park an hour later there was a queue
so probably best to get in first thing

Tōtaranui Campground
5.0/5
Went in October and it was mostly empty but you have to book ahead in Summer months - great spot with beautiful beach and amazing walks nearby.
The road to it is quite steep and rough (about 20km) but worth it ($9pp) - only cold showers and no lights at night in toilets.
