Beebys Hut - Day Tramp in Mt Richmond Forest Park
A good day walk to Beeby's Hut in Mount Richmond Forest Park. I took the Beeby's Knob route and reached the hut after a couple of hours and about 800m elevation gain. After a quick lunch stop at the hut, I returned the same way as some weather closed in.

An amazing overnight loop tramp in Nelson Lakes National Park. Starting from Mt Robert Road, I head to Hopeless Hut for the night, via the Travers Valley.

zhlédnutí 951Před 3 měsíci
My first time tramping in Kahurangi National Park, and it was a stunning introduction. After heading into Boulder Lake Hut at the northern end of the park, I decide to extend my original overnight plans by adding another day to visit Adelaide Tarn and Hut, and was glad I did. It was some truly awesome country to walk. Music is my own

zhlédnutí 1KPřed 4 měsíci

Kaimanawa Bush Hunting: 2 Nights at Oamaru Hut

A super fun overnight trip in Mount Thomas Forest Conservation Area, Canterbury with Zeb (Backcountry Kiwi). We climb Mt Thomas, then head to Pinchgut Hut for the night. The next day we call in to Bob's Camp Bivvy on the way out. It was great to get a little South Island trip in. Zeb's channel: www.youtube.com/@UCFgvQ3uvVif4-_9CCsV49Mw Music is my own
Zeke's Hut Overnight Tramp, Hihitahi Forest Sanctuary

An overnight trip to Zeke's Hut in Hihitahi Forest Sanctuary. The walk was a few hours among some amazing Hall's tōtara and pāhautea/kaikawaka with patches of snow underfoot and some awesome bird life. The small modern hut made for a comfortable night.

Overall elevation gain is approximately 273,285 feet, which is like climbing Mount Everest 9 & 1/2 times! The PCT IS 14 times. Amazing feat my friend.
Wow, thanks for the stats. I didn't know those figures! Cheers
I've enjoyed every moment. Epic cinematic vistas. You captured the heart of new zealand. Well done. Thanks for taking is along on your path. 🙏💛
Thanks so much for the kind comment. Glad you enjoyed it!
Great wee hut & condition given you can drive to it. Might I suggest you make the topo overlays longer and bigger as most watch via phones. 😊
Thanks for the feedback Dave. Will consider that. Cheers
You have a really good eye for the native plants and also have good photographic skills. Inspires me to visit that area next summer. You weren't so lucky with the weather but - hey - it's winter in NZ! Jeff
Thanks very much! Definitely recommend it for a nice day out. This was actually in March, but just a short wet spell among great overall weather when I was down there
Vicariously enjoyable. Such unusual bush/forest there and epic 360 views on the top. Shame we didn't get to see your wet weather mode ;-)
Cheers Paul. Yeah, figured I'd gotten my footage on the way up so didn't bother too much on the return
Great video Jesse, would love to of put more attention to those huts when I was there, they're so awesome. What was the white berries you picked there, edible?
@northernembersoutdoors1045 Cheers Chris, was a good little one. Yes, mountain snowberries. Absolutely delicious. They're a real treat as far as native berries go
What a beautiful trip. Those views.... Spectacular.
Cheers Peter. Awesome trip!
With weather that good the "long way back" was well worth it. What a wonderful trip! Thanks for the natural sound effects too. It's good to get onto a ridge and hear the world breathing (I don't mean the you puffing after a steep climb 😆) and the sound of rivers, wildlife and footsteps. An awesome tramp.
Thanks very much Robin. Haha, sorry about any breathing noises. I like that it's part of the experience, like anything else that comes with tramping, so believe it's worthy to stay in. Thanks for watching
Angleus Hut, what a location!! Can totally see why it would be so popular and the weather, wow!! Just got back down from Herepai up in the Tararuas and weather was total opposite. Wind, rain and lots of cloud. Was going to push up to the summit but got forced back. Oh well, gives me an excuse to go back 😁Another banger mate and see you on the next one. 👍
Thanks heaps! Shame you couldn't make it but probably a good call. Another area I'm keen to explore sometime. Cheers
@@ReviloNZwalks Yeah would rather be safe than sorry. You have to mate, it's amazing. Can get pretty brutal and steep in some parts but all part of the fun.
@@damonfacoory3108 So I hear about the Tararua! Have you been to Roaring Stag and Cattle Ridge?
@@ReviloNZwalks Yeah and the Ruahines can be the same. Yup been to both. Been to roaring stag a few times. Awesome trip. When I went up to cattle ridge I spent the night at roaring stag then headed up to cattle ridge then back out. Planning on heading to Dundus hut, which is past cattle ridge, at some stage. From what I'm led to believe there is a loop that carries on from Dundus back round to Herepai although it's pretty wild apparently but would love to give that a go.
@@damonfacoory3108 I see that potential for a loop. Looks pretty considerable, wouldn't want the weather to turn! Cheers
All of your videos could be paintings, of course, and this one was no exception. You have an "eye" for great shots. Well done. Thank you.
Thanks very much. It helps when the landscape does the talking!
Amazing scenery, thank you for sharing 😃
Cheers TJ!
Crikey, you are very brave, did you know you could go up sunset saddle, what did the hut occupants think of that route? It looks like potential rock avalanche terrain, you have big nads. I’ve been to Cupola hut, lovely hut. Think I’ll not follow you on this one 😅
I've known about the route for a long time so was good to finally do it. It was a bit more well cairned than I expected. It's become quite common with TA walkers. Most of the others in the hut were doing the same thing. One was a mountaineer who had been attempting the surrounding peaks, so even bigger nads there haha. Cheers for watching Dave
@@ReviloNZwalks well done looked epic
So beautiful, what month is this ? clarity of the water is mesmerising 😍Thanks for sharing 🙏
This was late February. Loved this trip. Thanks for watching!
Hey man how many hours did it take you to walk in?
It's a decent walk, maybe 5 hours? Not much hunting time for just an overnight, but I'm a serial walker 😂
Really enjoyed your video, excellent
Thanks for stopping by! Appreciate it
Great video, as usual. Thanks.
Thanks for watching! Cheers
Wow, again what an epic blue-sky day. Amazing the birdsong around Flora, the people caring for it have done a great job trapping. It never ceases to amaze me, but perhaps except for trail runners, you’re the fastest-moving thing in the park, no one could keep up with you. That tablelands area and tussock are so different from bushwalking. Pretty. It was interesting seeing Ballon Hut, I’ve never gone past Salisbury. I think that Gordon's Pyramid track always starts in the cloud, but often clears, just as it did for you. This walk is also great to do in winter (tho Mt Arthur is tricky). You’re king of the world up there. I can’t believe after that day your brain even contemplated that 600m trip to Ellis Hut, you must have started the day at 6am or something. There is something different about that brain and your legs!! 😉 You did a great job converting your holiday into all these videos, this one made me particularly happy.
Nice observation with the trapping. Had a great yarn with a volunteer at the Flora carpark. There's good work going on there. Stunning area, and Mt Arthur would be the perfect day walk from Flora carpark. Haha, it was a great day and I'm glad I made the most of it. Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for the kind words
Another banger mate. Those shelters are something else. Heading up the Ruahines tomorrow so always great to see a new vid from you to get a bit of motivation. Thanks for taking us along and can't wait for the next adventure. Keep em coming. 👍
Thanks heaps Damon. Epic, have a great trip. Look forward to ticking more off there when life allows. Cheers
It was a gold mining area. Wow! What a wonderful video of a unique area. Thanks for always sharing your appreciation ot the patterns and textures in the bush.
Thanks very much Robin! A perfect trip. Easy enough walking but great scenery
@@ReviloNZwalks There's nothing wrong with easy walking. 😆
@@robinmills5827 I'll take it any day
Great hike thank you for sharing it the solitude looks incredible!
Thanks very much for watching!
Love places like this Jesse, relics from the past, events faded from memory but clues left behind. Incredible story to be honest, not many places like that to see there, nice one, loved it
Cheers Chris. Very cool place. Interesting - surely a lot of historic buildings where you are?
Nice one, what an amazing spot!
Cheers for watching!
Looks like an amazing adventure, how good!!
Cheers. Love the channel name 😂
Im a bit late to the series, just finished watching the last view vids. Stunning places.
All good Peter. Cheers for stopping by!
They were hard people, back in the day. Not an easy life.
For sure
Interesting. You didn't continue on Flora Track to the various rock shelters? Liked the topo map insert. It would be interesting to add the track names to the description if you can. I'm sure it's already a lot of effort to put these videos together. Thanks.
My next trip involved the rock shelters and Mt Arthur - that'll be the next video! Glad you like the topo maps. Bit of an experiment that I hope gives better context. Will try remember that for future video descriptions. Cheers again
@@ReviloNZwalks oh that's good.... in the last video I thought you said there was only one more in this holiday series.
@pauldavies4870 sorry for the confusion, I meant the next video coming was my last Kahurangi tramp. Got one in at Nelson Lakes after that!
No shortage of goats! I wonder if there is any danger from bits of asbestos still in the ground. Probably not but worth investigating. What an amazing place to stay in - the whole area is a real museum.
I saw heaps of goats in the Kahurangi and Richmonds. Yeah I wondered that. Interesting to see how huge the industry was for something obsolete now. Different times. Cheers for watching
What stove are you using ?? Is it a brs 3000
Yes it is, been very happy with mine
@ReviloNZwalks I've been using same here in western Australia nice compact have u any vids on walk whirinakis
@iantooke3549 Yup, done Upper Whirinaki, Skips/Rogers, Mangamate Track and Moerangi, with videos for all of them
Flew into that hut in 90s with hela sika. Then they had trouble with 500 put down in kapo live in perth wa now
Thanks for watching Ian!
Another banger mate. What an awesome place. Looking forward to the next adventure you take us on. 👍
Much appreciated as always! Some good ones yet to come
Easy enough tramping for relatively inexperienced walkers?
Very easy tramping to the hut and lakes
Stunning landscape, remote.
Stunning, but relatively accessible considering!
You really used your holiday to go hard core on Kahurangi. Most people would be content with one or two hikes, but it seems like you may have had three weeks of it! NICE! That looked like a nice walk, and the monster in the lake looked friendly,, all with a lovely moody sunset to finish the day. I'm excited to see what's next, and hoping that perhaps you made it to Salisbury Lodge, then Mt Arthur.
Haha I did. It was definitely a continuous tramping 'holiday'. Monster in the lake 😂 I did indeed tramp Mt Arthur area so that will be next. And it was unfortunately my final Kahurangi tramp this time round. Cheers for watching
I love those reconstructed huts and the history of the area. What is surprising is that it took so long to designate Kahurangi as a National Park when it contains so many treasures. We are so lucky to have such places. Wonderful documantation of your exploration. Thank you for sharing your holiday.
Always appreciate your comments Robin. An incredible area with such diversity. Every park/NP has its own unique look and feel, and I loved the Kahurangi.
Great trip, as usual. What is the burgundy/brownish stuff on Cobb Lake? An invasive species the DOC should get rid of?
Thanks very much. That's a good question I hadn't thought of. No idea!
Do you know something about the Waingaro Peak Track?
Hey. I didn't walk any of it but was initially considering traversing the Lockett Range south from there, so read a bit about it online
Fantastic video, and how lucky were you with the weather. It's always fantastic see you and your videos. I never miss one.
Thanks very much for your support. I car camped the day before to pass some bad weather. Always prefer waiting for a good window!
Great variety of huts, some historic. Thanks for sharing your experience and your enthusiasm! How bad is the road in to the campsite? Suitable for a regular car (obviously not in winter conditions)? I read warning on the DOC website. Also about sandflies but I guess that's more a summer thing? What did you use to record your video? The quality is excellent and you've obviously spent a great deal of time editing it. What software did you use?
Thanks for your comment and kind words. At the time of my trip I thought the road in was absolutely no worries for 2WD. Just took it slow and steady. The sandflies during the tramp were fine, but I car camped a couple of nights at the Cobb campsite and they were terrible! I film with a Canon R50 and GoPro Hero 10. During this month long trip I filmed all the tramps in 1080p to save space but now regret not filming in 4k like I usually do. Recently changed to editing with DaVinci Resolve after my old software became obsolete. Mixed thoughts about it. Cheers
Outstanding atmosphere my friend! Shots are just amazing!
Thanks very much for watching
Love the Cobb! So lucky to have fenella hut to yourself.
Cheers for stopping by. Great area and was very lucky!
Hi, thanks so much for sharing the video. It's amazing! I want to plan a hike in the Kaweka Range. I'm wondering if you have the trail map?
Thanks very much for watching. I use topo maps to plan my trips in conjunction with online info. You can either go to topomap.co.nz or find one of the various apps (I download the maps to view offline when out on my trip). Cheers
@@ReviloNZwalks Great! Thanks so much for your help!
Great tarp camp. Good firecraft skills. Priceless outdoor & friends time.
Thanks very much. Absolutely
Great to see tarp camping. I miss the kaimanawas.
Thanks for watching. Gorgeous area. Hope it brought back some memories
mate, epic video. Are those bedrocks on your feet? Watching your shots is like looking at my own feet. I live in my bedrock sandals and people always have something to say about them! I'd love to have a chat about your tramping expeditions, get an idea of where's good in your opinion. I'm a brit recently moved to Tauranga and looking for some great trails.
@@ReviloNZwalks just seen this, cheers!
Awesome mate!
Hey cheers bro! How ya been? Still filming?
Very nice, Great trip. Thanks!
Thanks very much for watching!
Thanks Jesse, interesting area. Beautifully rugged, such cool historic huts, have you moved to the south & why’s Zeb gone awol?
Cheers Dave! Looking forward to watching your big Richmond day tramp. Nah this was just a little tramping holiday down there. Zeb is currently traveling overseas so that's awesome
Only bush hut I know of that has a shower. Did you light the fire and have a hot shower?
I think it's a first for me too, although I've seen wetbacks before. It would've been great to do that but it was so hot, so a river swim was all I needed!
Choice video. What a magnificent taoka. Rotomairewhenua - I have never ever experienced such cold water to swim in
Thanks very much for watching. It's an incredible treasure, and I'd strongly encourage against swimming or even disturbing the water due to environmental and cultural reasons. Cheers
Awesome bush hunting they just cunning little critters in there. Good video 🤙
Far out, I just came across your videos today, then you pop up here! Cheers, hoping I'll get some results soon. Keep up the good stuff
@ReviloNZwalks Hard case. Yeah, keep at it just gotta be patient on them, aye. Cheers 🤙
