Here is the aqua taxi that takes you into the park... And the tractor physically goes into the water too to drop the boat off - crazy!!

The Abel Tasman Coast Track is a 51km (32 mile) long New Zealand walking track within the Abel Tasman National Park. It extends from Marahau in the south to Wainui in the north, with many optional side tracks. You can rent a bed in a bunk bij the informationcentre in Picton. I recommend it if you want to make a nice hike.
