Hi,
I will have two children with me in drive from Wanaka to Haast, and I was thinking of doing the walk to the Blue pool. My children are athletic but get tired, as they are still quite little. I was thinking of taking an umbrella stroller for each of them (smaller stroller, so easy to lug them around in the car). Is the walk to the blue pools paved? Is it comfortable to take the children on the blue pools walk in the stroller?
Thanks,
Kamran.
The walk is not very long, I did it in about 5 minutes as a fast walker. A stroll i think would only take 15 minutes. It's not paved but there is a defined track that you could bring a stroller on, however the swing bridges over to the pools might not be wide enough.
If you're comfortable leaving it at the bridges (which you'd probably have to anyway as right down by the water there are stairs and lots of rocks) then I'd suggest that, but you could take your time doing the walk and not get the little ones too tired.
