Paddle back down South Fiord to Te Anau with a short portage over the amazing orienteering terrain at Hidden Lakes.

Through the Hidden Lakes track for a bit of a change. Dream orienteering.
Met some people for the first time in a week near the jetty. A big tour group with a tour guide in a suit and crying babies. Don't think either party knew what to make of the other!
Up the Large Burn and then up onto the tops via the secret passage in the cliff. Some climbing required and pack hauling. Tops traverse until dark and a beauty if a camp site near some tarns.
