THE Nelson Lakes, Rotoroa and Rotoiti, and the associated Travers-Sabine Circuit are really one of the gems of the New Zealand outdoors, with their own Nelson Lakes National Park. The scenery is magnificent, there are plenty of huts to stay in, and good tracks.
The lakes are very historic as Lake Rotoiti has a large population of eels, which Māori travelling overland to the sources of pounamu on the West Coast used to dry and smoke for sustenance on the way.
Reaching in behind the lakes, the Travers-Sabine Circuit is about eighty kilometres (fifty miles) long. It reaches deep into the mountainous country behind Lakes Rotoiti and Rotoroa and involves one significant alpine saddle, the Poukiriri orTravers Saddle, which has its summit at 1787 metres or nearly 6,000 feet above sea level and can be icy even in summer.
