Return to Seddonville

After our trip walking around the arches and caves of Karamea we decided today would be a rest day and apart from a quick trip to the shop we spent the day lazing around reading in the sun.  Not a bad day to spend a Monday !

This morning (Tuesday) we return to the Seddonville Hotel for a couple of days where we are going to join them for the dawn service on ANZAC day.   A fairly low key affair here but attended by about 60 of the locals and a bagpiper and bugler followed by a cooked breakfast at the Hotel.

The road back is quite steep, winding and long and before descending to Mohikanui summits at 450m before a sharp descent to the turnoff to Seddonville.

Didn’t take any photos today (for a change) so here’s some of recent birds taken at Kohaihai at the start of the Heaphy Track
