East Cape to Cape Egmont Traverse
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This East Cape to Cape Egmont Traverse is not so much a trail, more a Kiwi pilgrimage to our early pioneers and landscape.
Two authors/walkers have completed this traverse and written books:
- Salisbury, Raymond [1996] (April 1997). "The Great Escape", "Cape to Cape - 80 Day Traverse of the North Island" (in en). Word for Word Publishing. Retrieved on March 2007. “A red station-wagon full of eldery folk pulled up alongside me. Seeing I was obviously going tramping, a lady asked me 'Where was I going?' I replied 'for a walk down the road,'...”
- A H REED – From East Cape to Cape Egmont On Foot at Eighty-six. 1st Edition 1962.
Undoubtedly at age 86 A.H. Reed didn't take the difficult Raukumara Ranges Forest Park route. A great Kiwi feat non-the-less.
