Jenifer Silva was an outdoor adventure guide in her 20s, but hadn’t done much tramping in over a decade. Wanting to get back into tramping, she set off on a solo eight day walk in the Kaimai Mamaku Conservation Park, walking the length of the ranges from south to north. Over the course of the journey, Jenifer stayed in both huts and tents, faced plenty of mud, rain, overgrown track, stream crossings and fallen trees. As a self-proclaimed gear geek, she shares the tent, sleeping bag, pack and other things she took with her, what she loved and lessons she learnt. With views over the east coast and North Island, the Kaimai ranges have plenty of tracks and something for every fitness and experience level.
