I Tried to Run a 7-Day Hike in 36 Hours | Fastpacking the Travers Sabine Circuit NZ
Working a 9 to 5 can leave you feeling like there isn't much time in your weekend. Before you know it you are back at work. But what is possible in a weekend? Can I complete a hike that normally takes 7 days in just 36 hours? In this video I embark on the popular Travers Sabine Circuit in Nelson Lakes NZ to find out. A fastpacking adventure that has it all, mountains, lakes, rivers and bush. It's one heck of a mission for just a weekend, but that's what makes things fun. Stats: Day 1 - 50km, 2186m ascent Day 2 - 44.18km, 1598m ascent If you have any comments, feedback or suggestions feel free to leave them down below.
