5-Day Solo Backpacking Abel Tasman Coast Track | New Zealand

I backpacked for five days on the Abel Tasman Coast Track, which offers an unforgettable hiking experience with breathtaking scenery. This stunning trail winds through lush native forests, alongside golden sandy beaches, and past crystal-clear turquoise waters. Along the way, you'll encounter serene coves, dramatic coastal views, and opportunities for swimming. I was fortunate to have great weather throughout all five days.
