Abel Tasman Coast Track - Abel Tasman National Park

ABEL TASMAN COAST TRACK - Abel Tasman National Park
The 60 km Abel Tasman Coast Track is usually walked in 3 to 5 days. The track can be walked in either direction. The main consideration is when Low Tide is on the day we need to cross Awaroa Inlet. Talk with the Department of Conservation (DOC) and they will advise which direction to walk the track.

ANCHORAGE TO BARK BAY - The track climbs to this low saddle and here we have a decision to make. Low Tide track or All-Tide Track? The All-Tide track is nice and we can go to Cleopatra's Pool on the way - and the Low Tide Track is much easier and takes an hour less. It also depends on tide. We can only use the Low Tide Track within 2 hours either side of low tide.

The fairly easy but long 17 km walk from Awaroa Hut to Whariwharangi Hut, stopping at Totaranui for lunch, takes 5 hours 35 minutes. The crucial factor is the Low Tide Time for the crossing at Awaroa. Awaroa Inlet can only be crossed within 1 hour 30 minutes before and 2 hours after low tide.

The fairly easy 3 hr 15 min, 9.8 km walk from Totaranui to Whariwharangi takes us through what most visitors describe as "the best part of the Abel Tasman". Comparatively few people explore this northern part of the park because of the way the park is marketed by business operators at the Marahau end of the track. Aside from the fact that that this end of the park is more beautiful, the fact that so few people come north of Totaranui is undoubtedly part of its appeal.
