Had an amazing guided hunting trip with Shaun, in the breath taking island hills. Shot my 1st south island red deer and red stag. Shaun is a great guide, making you feel comfortable whether you are a beginner or seasoned hunter definitely want to go back again. A must do!

Thoroughly enjoyed our recent three day trek. Some good challenges along a well designed track that saw us enjoy wonderful views along the way. Huts were a welcome sight at the end of each day. Great amenities and well stocked. Loved the pack cartage each day and walking with a day pack. Very well organised and Shaun makes you feel at ease out on the trail knowing there’s daily check ins at the huts and weather forecasts each night. Recommended to those wanting to visit our great outdoors and away from busy crowded tracks.
We had a fantastic time. Shaun was professional, friendly, and faultless in the way he set us and the experience up. The huts and showers have to be experienced to be believed. Would highly recommended to anyone who has a medium or better fitness level
Had a wonderful trip during the school holidays with the children (aged 9 and 10). Fantastic track, great way to see our own back yard. Beautiful native bush, birds, and wildlife. Make sure you take the time to check out the glowworms and have a go at catching some pests (the children were stoked to catch a possum). Totally recommend.
Beautiful place and a lovely walk. We did the two-day version, when our original tramping plans were scuttled by shocking weather. They were able to accomodate us last minute. It still felt like a tramp - some nice little hills in there to get the heart rate up. Stunning, stunning views, some company in the form of cows (all very chilled out), and friendly informative hosts in Shaun and Hayley. Thank you Shaun and Hayley, and to the Shand family for sharing their bit of paradise. (PS. When you do this walk, plan to have a shower at the Valley Lodge!).
You can truly call this place a piece of paradise! This is the first place in NZ I felt very sad to leave behind. Had my first hunting experience and the walking tracks are something else! It’s a once in a lifetime experience. If cabins, outdoor wood heated baths under stars, mountains and hunting sound intriguing. Don’t miss out!
Highly recommend this guided trip-Kiwi value non-stop and memories forever.! You will learn things you did not know about the NZ bush and wildlife and have such a better experience of the land!! Just carry a daypack and enjoy every minute. Super clean historic huts, toilets, showers (hot at every stop!!) Really well-organized..Plus awesome meals, wildfoods, treats and surprises-don't miss out! This one is a MUST DO even for experienced trampers-over gorgeous country with the Best Guide Ever (you can find the track yourself but you will miss half the experience without Shaun Monk with you!)--book it- you will NOT regret it. Plus if you're into hunting, teaching your kids to hunt-he is your man. Super thumbs up all around!\u200d\u200d️
What a way to rejuvenate! Island Hills truly has it all; well-equipped comfortable huts, diverse and interesting walking options for every level of fitness and knowledgeable, enthusiastic, down-to-earth hosts. An adventure not to be missed.
