📍One of the top ten trails in New Zealand / Day 3 Kepler track

One person, two mountain houses, three days, 61 kilometers, 96710 steps👣 Feel the power of nature in the mountains and forests for these three days The weather in the fjords is unpredictable, especially in the mountains I was very lucky that the weather wasn’t too bad these three days Complete the trail in a counterclockwise direction. -🏞Day 3 27km 41716 pace👣- Main line: From Iris burn hut to Rainbow reach car park Branch: Iris burn waterfall I didn't get up until almost 8pm on the third day. I also packed my bags very quickly. First go to the nearby branch line to see the waterfall. The environment along the road is quiet, with wild ferns everywhere The green mountains and forests make people feel soothing. There are also people swimming naked in the morning. Swimming naked abroad is no longer a special thing. But swimming in such a cold stream🏊‍♀️ It's really admirable! It must be very cool and comfortable. Spent an hour round trip taking the branch line. It was 9:30 when we really started the main route. I was thinking that Ranger mentioned that there would be a shuttle bus at 3pm. But the third day of the route even the long-legged foreigner had to walk eight hours, Moreover I am a short-legged person 🦵! So I left with all my strength, Fortunately, there were not many uphill sections of the route on the third day. Most of them are flat roads and easy to walk! Along the way you will pass a big slip big valley Flat Valley formed in 1984 by a heavy rain alone in the valley, Feel the magical power of nature! Looking at the surrounding mountain peaks, It feels like being embraced by nature! Along the way I kept meeting mountaineers who left earlier than me. Everyone wants to catch the 3pm shuttle. Although there is still one class at 5 o'clock. But I myself think the most magnificent view was satisfied the next day, I want to end it quickly 🔚 I also want to challenge my leg strength🦶 Along the way you will pass Lake Manapouri Spectacular lake view! There is still some snow on the hilltop in the distance. The lake reflects the blue sky and white clouds. The last part of the road, all in the woods, There are many unique giant wild mushrooms. There are also many cute birds. Many fan tails🐦The tail wing looks like a fan I sat on a branch and rested. A little bird jumped around me curiously. I left some of the little food left for her, Then we will continue our journey! Some huge wooden trunks fell to the ground along the road. Be grateful for every leap. Thank you to the trees for letting us step and helping us complete the trip successfully. Finally at 2:45 pm I finally walked the eight hour journey in five hours and 15 minutes! Achievement achieved! And when you see the signs. Very moved and satisfied! Originally expected to hitchhiking back to town. Really tired to give up completely. Seeing the shuttle arriving. We all said to the driver 👨🏼‍✈️, "It's great to see you!"
