Key is to investigate their website for <a href="http://www.nelsonlakesshuttles.co.nz/" title="nelson lakes shuttles budget fairs" target="_blank">services already running</a>. We got lucky recently with transport to St Arnaud - worked out extremely cheap. <br>https://old.vuwtc.org.nz:443/cs/forums/thread/250.aspxWed, 24 Jan 2007 06:31:44 GMT16d72366-88ed-474a-b0cc-65d60f7c13e3:250Anonymous0https://old.vuwtc.org.nz:443/cs/forums/thread/250.aspxhttps://old.vuwtc.org.nz:443/cs/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=14&PostID=250<P>Hey all,</P> <P>I'm planning on walking the Heaphy Track in mid-Feb before uni starts. I'll most likely start it on the 14th or 15th of Feb. and plan on doing it in 4 days.&nbsp;I may also do a bit of sightseeing around Golden Bay; I've always wanted to check out that great big spit on the top of the South Island. So if anyone is interested in joining me you're very much welcome to.</P> <P>&nbsp;Also, if anyone has advice on getting to and from track ends (especially the West Coast side) I'd be most appreciative, ie. any recommendations on travel companies, or is it just as easy to hitch. And also what the decent backpackers are in the area, that would be great too.</P> <P>&nbsp;Cheers,</P> <P>James</P>
