Today’s Feel-Good Story 🥹
A legend in Christchurch found two backpacks dumped by a river and inside was our Mountain View Backpackers late check-in letter, so he called us, here in Wanaka!
With a bit of detective work, we tracked down the guests that had stayed with us. Sadly the bags had been stolen, but thanks to this absolute good Kiwi, they got most of their belongings back 🙌
Shout-out to Glen, who even drove to return the bags to where they were staying! Dad hat well and truly on 🧢💛

Good times ahead! Roy's Peak is back on the 11th November (14 sleeps), and with direct views from the backpackers, you'll know when to grab those tramping boots and head straight up for those epic shots ☀️❄️. Today's blue skies aren't hurting either
