Abel Tasman Coast Track
4.0/5
Beautiful campsites ( Bark Bay, Anchorage) but in summer very full and we booked before in Picton - not good because we were in stress to come to the special dates and to the special campsite.
Not good with heavy bags (very hot in summer), nice beaches to swim and relax, nice flora and fauna but sometimes the same/boring and too much people. Campgrounds are good, best place is @ Anchorage - better than Totaranui.
