Thread: Stewart Island

Ive done the southern a few times from Rakiahua hut to Doughboy and back. Ive not done the Nor-West completely as I find tramping for the sake of it not much fun. Theres also the Tin range to Pegasus if your really wanting a leg stretcher. I tell people that Stewy Is is a big little Island and don't take it for granted. I remember a bloke who set off to run around it. He got part of the way around and got hypothermia and was found alive naked waving at the heli that was looking for him. Sounds like you've done your homework and Nov Dec would be a great time to head away with long daylight hours etc.
