It may seem late in the year to be talking about making a New Year’s resolution, but with the recent Covid-19 lockdown and plenty of time for soul searching, now is the perfect time to make one for 2020 if you haven’t already.
I don’t know what appeals about getting out into the great outdoors as we get older. There seems to be a desire to reconnect with nature, fill our lungs with fresh air, or is it just we have more time? Multi-day hiking away from civilisation is the ultimate, and near the top of that list is the Routeburn Track. While many people have this hike on their bucket list, I had more reason than most to complete this track.
