Hiking and Walking: Hiking in Haast Pass The West Coast boasts multiple opportunities to undertake hike and walks, ranging from a gentle meander along the edges of the inland waterways - Lake Brunner, with its stunning rainforest backdrop is a must-do location - to multi-day adventures for hardcore experienced trampers. A short walk which provides stunning scenery is at the Hokitika River gorge, where meandering still waters run deep, intense turquoise in colour. The Paparoa Track and Old Ghost Road trail are multi-day walks. Hut bookings are required for both. The walk into the Oparara Arches should not be missed either. Tucked away in the Kahurangi National Park, Oparara has been preserved through millions of years of isolation. Access is just north of Karamea, with both guided and un-guided excursions available. Leave a few hours and take a picnic lunch in order to soak up the magnificence of this geological masterpiece. Don’t just do a good walk...... do a GREAT one!
