Title
Queen Charlotte Track Marlborough Sounds New Zealand
Description
The track stretches from Ship Cove to Anakiwa - 71 kilometre (approximately 45 miles) of spectacular walking track passing through historic sites, secluded bays and lush coastal bush.
While the Queen Charlotte Track is not a steep track it is a long track. This means that the distances walked each day (especially from Punga Cove to Anakiwa) can be challenging.
The terrain of the track is regarded as undulating with hills ranging from sea level to a maximum of 400 metres. Most of the track is wide (1 to 1.5 metres in width), and all major streams have been bridged. The surface, being mainly clay soil, is hard and firm in dry conditions but can often be slippery when wet.
