Very Happy Hi,

We are comming to NZ in april less than 50 days Very Happy

We choose to do the rees dart track in south island in th month of May.

I was wondering what are the best ways to reach the track from Glenorchy at that time of the year.???

Also, I noted that the bridge is removed over snowy creek in May and I would like to know how easy or hard Wink is this river crossing at that time of year.???

Thanks mates Cool

Hi mad6max9, there are a few transport operators that can drop you off at the track ( http://www.buckleytransport.co.nz/ http://www.infotrack.co.nz/index.php ). I haven't done the Rees - Dart yet so I can't give my personal experience, but it doesn't look to daunting ( http://images.google.com/images?q=%22snowy+creek%22+rees+OR+dart ) of course if it flooded you would avoid trying to cross it.
