I have great memories of hiking the Hump Ridge Track in 2018.

Overjoyed to read that it is starting to get the attention it deserves.

Situated in the country’s isolated south-west region, the Hump Ridge Track will officially launch in October 2024 and has the potential to save the tiny town of Tuatapere.

@KingSara Funfact, I'm currently #digitising the #history of the #Murihiku #Southland #WesternDistrict #HumpridgeTrack as it becomes a #GreatWalk #Aotearoa #NZ in a year's time... I think a few people will come & do multiple walks.
