Steward Island North West Circuit
Hey, we are two guys so far looking for another person to join us on the 125 km Northwest Circuit. It is supposed to be a 9-12 days hike, we want to do it in 9, depending on the weather. See you!
hi Pimam
did you get to do the Raikura? or are you still wanting to do it as a party of 3?
cheers

It's quite achievable to do the NWC in 9 days, especially if you camp on the way. With 2 camps, Frank and I did it completely in 8 days, including climbing Mt Anglem. If you cheat and go out in the water taxi from Freshwater landing, that will save a day or a day and a half.
There's a shortcut between Smoky Beach and Long Harry Bay that avoids the beautiful new Long Harry Hut but I could never bring myself to miss that hut in that magic location. Maybe one day...
