About this video:
It’s Day 54 of New Zealand’s Biggest Gap Year where we’re doing 365 days: 365 activities! Today’s activity is walking the Enchanted Track in Egmont National Park on the slopes of Mt Taranaki!
We drive from Stratford to the forests surrounding the lower slopes of Mt Taranaki, covered in winding dense forests that look like something from a fairy tale. We find out soon enough why they call the walk we go on the Enchanted Track.
The Enchanted Track in Egmont National Park goes through the beautiful forests in a loop joining to other tracks along the way. We are amazed by this awesome wilderness environment right here in the Egmont National Park.
It’s back to the Stratford Holiday Park after doing the Enchated Track of Egmont National Park.
