Picton Arriving in Picton Journey to the Track

Journey to the Track

You can choose from a water taxi, launch or yacht, or road transport to get to the Queen Charlotte Track.

For most people the Queen Charlotte Track experience begins on leaving Picton bound for Ship Cove with sea access also available at Resolution Bay, Endeavour Inlet, Camp Bay, Torea Bay/Portage Bay, Mistletoe Bay / Te Mahia Bay and Anakiwa. Daily water transport services or charter trips offer transport to and from these points.

On the way you will see many of the coves, inlets and valleys which make up the walkway, providing a feast for the eyes and a taste of what is to come.

Road access is possible at Camp Bay/Kenepuru Saddle, Torea Bay/Portage Bay, Mistletoe Bay/Te Mahia Bay and Anakiwa. There is only limited and unsecured parking in these areas.

Track News
Visitors may come across wild pigs from time to time along the track rooting for food, especially the section between Camp Bay and Torea Saddle, over the winter months.

These wild pigs are very shy and will run away from walkers, if walkers are lucky enough to spot one.

The pigs were released by Captain Cook at Ship Cove as a food source & have spread through out New Zealand. ....
