The Whale Trail is planned to be an approximately 210km cycling and walking trail along the South Island’s spectacular northeast coast, from Picton to Kaikōura.
Driven by local communities and delivered by the Marlborough Kaikōura Trail Trust, the proposed trail will connect the communities of Picton, Blenheim, Seddon, Ward, Kekerengu, Clarence and Kaikoura, and showcase our regions’ rich, diverse landscapes, history, industries and people.
The Whale Trail will be an incredible world-class cycling and walking trail, connecting coastal communities between Picton and Kaikōura. The Trail is managed by the Marlborough Kaikoura Trail Trust (MKTT)
This cache is one of four placed by myself and NZDi between the Whaleway Station and near the end of the cycle trail that heads north of Kaikoura township before you have to take to the backroads near Middle Creek bridge. Eventually, a large proportion of the Whale Trail is going to run alongside the rail corridor and the sign here serves as a warning that 'Tracks are for Trains'. For those who disregard this warning the is a penalty of $10,000.
The cache is a flat 20ml metal box with sliding lid with a RitR logsheet in a plastic zip-lock bag.
