Abel Tasman Inland Track stream

The Abel Tasman Inland Track is a 38 km (24 mi) tramping track that runs through the centre of the Abel Tasman National Park and is maintained by the Department of Conservation.[1] It diverts from the main Abel Tasman Coast Track between Tinline Bay and Torrent Bay.[1][2] Although the coast track has the reputation of being New Zealand's most popular walking track, the inland track is a much less walked route, with regular back-country huts.[3]
