We’re making a detour! There’s apparently some great stuff to be seen, done and tasted over here in the Coromandel Peninsular. So we’ve decided to switch out a chunk of our south bound Te Araroa trek and pop over here instead :) 
Yep that’s right, we’re taking a sizable departure from the Te Araroa Trail and heading in the wrong direction, North! The Coromandel was one most recommended places to visit by friends we quizzed about New Zealand, so we didnt want to pass it by when it’s only a ferry ride away.
Not quite sure yet how it’s going to pan out yet or where and when we’ll meet back up with the trail again, but it will probably involve my parents driving us back to the trail at some point (they’re visiting us at Christmas). For the time being we’re going to head up the peninsula to the Coromandel Walkway at the very top and see what happens!
