Situated in the heart of Karamea, we are the first service off the Heaphy Track. Surrounded by the Kahurangi National Park, we offer a world of natural wonderland experiences, or just a holiday "away from it all".

A platform that allows you organise your own transport to many of the typically difficult to access one-way trails in New Zealand. Avoid booking shuttles or car relocations, instead connect with other trail users and help each other.
