Car Relocation
Divide to Routeburn $389 per car
Independence offers so much convenience. Your time is valuable and the best way to make the most of it when you’re on holiday is to travel at your own pace and on your own schedule. Our car relocation is a simple and efficient way for you to do just that.
Choosing a car relocation means you can take your time on the track, there’s no meeting time or backtracking required. It’s safe, secure and we take care of the insurance arrangements with your rental car company. For groups, it’s also more cost-effective and efficient than the bus, plus you get the added bonus of a fresh pair of clothes (and snacks) waiting for you at the end of your walk!
For a detailed step-by-step breakdown of how our car relocation works, see our 5 Step Process.
TOO EASY!
Please have your car parked and ready for relocation by 10.30 on the day you start walking.
We schedule our drivers to relocate your vehicle so it’s ready for your collection after 1pm on your last day. If you’d like your vehicle before 1pm, please let us know.
Walking the Routeburn Track in one or two days? Due to the additional effort required for a single day or two day relocations in the direction from Routeburn (Queenstown end) to Divide (Te Anau end), a surcharge on top of the relocation fee applies.
Routeburn Shelter to Divide – Two day surcharge $50, One day surcharge $150.
Walking from Divide to Routeburn Shelter? No two day surcharges apply. A surcharge of $50 may apply for a one day car relocation.
Some companies outside of Queenstown aren’t so familiar with Easyhike and our relocation service, but this isn’t a cause for concern. We take care of the insurance details directly with them closer to your walk.
