The X marks the Kepler Track

The Kepler Track is one of the Great Walks. Usually it is a 3 day walk. It is possible to make it in 2 days but this would be two very stressful and long days so better take your time and tramp it in three.

Take a torch or headlamp with you to explore a little bit of the Luxmoore Caves near the Luxmoore Hut!

The Kepler Track is one of the Great Walks and in the summer month you have to book a place in the huts. In winter you don´t have to pre-book, just take the hut-passes with you and leave them at the huts!!

You can find more information about the track and booking on the official website of the department of conservation: http://www.doc.govt.nz/Explore/

The Barnyard Backpacker some kilometer outside of Te Anau (so you need your own vehicle) is a very nice and cosy backpacker!!
