Hiking one of New Zealand's Great Walks, the Kepler Track, over 2 nights and 3 days.
We hiked the Kepler clockwise which we recommend, because it leaves the best alpine scenery til last!
Tent camped the whole way, didn't stay in any of the huts.
Departed on 20/1/2020 - great summer weather, barely rained at all which is rare for Fiordland.
Filtered water with a Sawyer Filter. Not featured in the video - Fiordland sandflies!
