Waitawheta Hut - Tramway walk
Hi Folks.
Will be attempting the above walk with my family next weekend. Looking for a little insight on the following:
1. Are the river crossings deep (will have a 7 year old with me)
2. The hut is full, so we plan on tenting for the night next to the hut- is that advisable?
3. Are there any tips/tricks to get the most out of the trip?
4. What is the parking situation, I see a few folks were broken in to over christmas. was that an isolated incident?
Thanks
*Are the river crossings deep (will have a 7 year old with me)*
From memory all river crossings are either bridged or there was an alternative high-water track. In normal flow it is pretty easy to cross.
*The hut is full, so we plan on tenting for the night next to the hut- is that advisable?*
There is plenty of camping around the hut.
*What is the parking situation, I see a few folks were broken in to over christmas. was that an isolated incident?*
Don't know. Only been there once.
