Rainy ride through the HAAST PASS | Motorcycle camping in New Zealand on my Norden 901 [E11- S6]

- 24. February 2024 - The rain has caught up with me as I leave the West Coast and ride through the Haast Pass in New Zealand. Entering a very popular area of the South Island, it's hard to find anywhere to stay the night.

It’s easy to become uninspired on a gray, rainy day, especially on an extended trip a long way from home. But you embraced the day and gave us a beautiful episode. Thanks!
Rain sure has a way of pulling up those moody, low feelings in most people. Especially if there is a lot of rain on your trips - for me I've been so lucky with the weather up until this point ne day of rain didn't really bother me at all!
Hi from New Zealand.
Im really enjoying your kiwi adventurers. Hope you come back for more one day.
Greetings to "down under" 😃 Glad you enjoy it, I sure did too and I hope to come back some day to explore more of your beautiful country!
Hi Runa, Loved this episode, I always thought Lake Hawea is as beautiful as Lake Wakatipu, so mystical. I loved driving the Wanaka - Cardrona - Queenstown "Crown Range Road" with it's one lane bridges and the steep zig-zag section on the Queenstown side. I had a snow fight with strangers at that high point viewing park, over looking the steep valley, lot of fun. Like you I also explored the Arrowtown shops, especially the gold shop, on a day trip from Queenstown. ! This brought back so many memories for me. Thanks so much for sharing your trip, it's just wonderful Runa. Great Music again. A rainy day just makes the sunny days seem brighter on a bike. 🤩🤩🤩👍🦘🦘
Thank you! 😊 It sure was a stunning ride, I understand how you like it so much. Glad you liked the episode - rain is alright every now and then especially when the day ends with sun and ice cream 😄 Have a good day and take care!
Please be careful, Please be safe Runa ji , May God bless you with lot's and lot's and lot's of love, health, happiness, safety and prosperity, May all your future endeavours be just as successful as this one🥰🥰🥰❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I am planning a solo camping ride in the middle of October , I cannot wait!! Your videos are really helpful! Thank you so much!!!!
I Always feel like life is a little better after watching your videos.. Thanx
That is so kind of you, thank you! 🥰
Awesome episode Runa, thanks for sharing! adding the info of your equipment as you were packing was really great, well done!! 👍👍
Until some time in the early 90s Haast to Wanaka was a gravel road. Was really fun back then
Absolutely stunning landscapes, it reminds so much of Norway so I can understand that you love it.
I totally agree with you and traveling in rain. Riding in the rain is not the biggest problem but packing up all gear in rain is awful. Taking on and of clothes inside the tent especially the trousers is an real challenge. I slept one night in the back of my car this summer and to it was even a bigger challenge to undress in the back of the car than in the tent.
Arrow Town looked cosy, perfect name for an archer to stop for an ice cream (liquorice ice cream is awesome).
Tank you so much Runa for sharing your adventures with us
I can imagine getting ready in the backseat of a car is even more challenging indeed, just nowhere to stretch out properly to get the clothes off 😂 It's gymnastics! I did like the name of the little town, very fitting indeed 🥰 Thank you for following along as always Jonas, really appreciate it!
Lovely video Runa very changeable weather a lot like Ireland but fantastic mountains love the accompanying music 😊
Thank you! Glad you like the music 😊 Great day with great views, despite the wind and rain - or perhaps because of it! Especially when the day ended with sun! .. and ice cream 😁
Everything is worth it when it comes to NZ. Been there so many times and each time has been magical. - Glad to see you experiencing it all. -- Thank you for sharing. Stay wonderful.
It really is! The variety of the landscape is just.. wow! Thank you for following along, even though you've already been there and experienced it yourself! 😊
Thanks Runa,i was missing you, so i just re-watched this one!!😊
I was soo glad to see you stop to enjoy the sites on the ride. It is too easy to get down and depressed with tough days when on the road. What a great video.
Impossible to not stop when encountered with views like these, despite the weather! The moody clouds and rain just adds to it 😊 Thank you for watching!
Runa 😮 you didn't eat ALL of that Pizza in one sitting..... did you 😮😅
Once again, amazing episode ... What you told about meeting that guy in the petrolstation, who advised against riding your planned route ... Talking with locals can bring sooo much usefull info. When I travel alone, after arriving on my day destination, looking for a place to eat or enjoying a drink, I always choose those small places where mostly only locals go. First, it's awesome to connect with those locals instead of other tourists. They will tell you about daily life, but more important about the really special things typical for that area. Almost every singel time it results in learning about locations or events who are a must see, a must visit. It has led me to places, not described on the traditional (online) travelguides. But it will also inform you about potential or real dangers and places or routes to avoid. This all if there is no language barrier ... handsigning can result in hilarious "conversations". And the rain ... enjoying travelling in such weather ... only after investing in decent good raingear, it's like you mentioned ... soak it up and after (for me) a long time it can be fun. Great that you shared also that part of your travels, we all know it is a part of it all, but shown so rarely.
That is so true! The best information of all sorts comes from the locals - and they sure make better food than the typical chain restaurant or fast food kitchen as well. If you enjoy traveling amongst coasts, lakes and mountains, rain is bound to be a part of your trip sooner or later, sometimes it sucks but when it's only one day here and there one really can't complain! It can be so stunning, after all 😍
Smart move, not going up Skippers. That road is scary on a good day.
Indeed it was!
I enjoy your channel, and I could do without so many pictures of you on the left, obscuring the view (which changes every time, unlike you). Happy rides!
I found your channel while researching camera equipment. Thanks for the advice and howdy from a fellow cycler in Texas. Shiney side up...
Love riding that road from Haast through to Wanaka! Although most times, we’ve done it in the sunshine. Another fantastic short ride, just before you leave Haast, is a quick ride down the coast to Jackson’s bay. That road is stunning.
Ride safe and enjoy 😊
You must program to visit non touristic places off my country GREECE.Ater that visit the countries which are near to GREECE and you will be surprise of the beauty off balcans.Every land has his diferent beauty.Bravo for saring your trips with us.
Hi Come to India and travel in the majestic himalayas, Jammu and Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh states , Sikkim and Arunachal Pradesh states bordering with China. Cover all the entire himalayan range. You will get a million subscribers soon. There are many moto vloggers ride into the himalayas. Check out and all the best. Stay safe and stay healthy. Love from India.
I am so much enjoying watching you travel our country by bike and going to the same places that I have ridden . It's like doing it again.
Happy to hear 😃 It's nice seeing even familiar places, through someone else's "eyes" sometimes.
As long as the rain doesn't wash away your bright attitude, all is good 🙂 Thanks for sharing with us.
Thank you for following along! A little rain every now and then doesn't bother me too much - it's part of traveling if you like it our not 😃
Once more thank you runagrydeland you always make to People inspired
And thank you for following along! 😊 It's a pleasure sharing!
When i first the fog descending on the mountains it was like near my house or regency . I really like it cuz it soothes my mind and soul. Always pray before action ... ! Runa grydeland
10:22-10:40 Your cornering skills are just beautiful 😍😍🥰🥰🥰❤️❤️😍🥰🥰🥰🥰😍😍😍🥰❤️❤️❤️❤️
Hi Runa - really enjoyed watching this - another comment to add to the thanks and appreciation of your videography and editing skills! Great to see NZ in less than perfect conditions - in fact the mist, diffuse soft light and rain give a fantastic atmosphere in your shots - chapeau!
Great work Runa, i am surprised you haven't encountered more 'weather' so far. Those views in dodgy weather were exceptional. Thankyou 😎✌
I am too! I was very lucky with the weather on this trip in general 😃 So some rainy days really is ok! Thank you for watching, I'm glad you enjoyed it 😊
@@OffSheGoesADV You are up there with the best Runa..you are super-glued to my subscribe list 🙂
I am in 😍. With the bike of course! 8:24 I would frame this one. Do make a video on the touring gears. Thanks.
TODO MUY BONITO TANTO LA MOTO COMO USTED ❤ LOS SITIOS Y LOCACIONES MUY HERMOSOS,,,, A MANERA DE SUGERENCIA LOS VIDEOS TAMBIÉN LES PUEDE PONER SUBTITULOS EN ESPAÑOL , YA QUE EN COLOMBIA SOMOS MUY AMANTES DE LAS 2 RUEDAS GRACIAS
Hello, I wonted to ask which tires do you use? thanks - Rafael
Great vid Runa. Glad to see a fellow TTer gave you some advice to help you decide to spoil yourself. You deserve it.
Not sure how you do it but the music and the scenes you're riding through just match so well. Another awesome video
Glad you notice, and like it! 😊 I spend a LOT of time trying to find the right music - cause it matters!
I want to invite you Pakistan can you visit here?
haha i live in darwin NT , a day without a shower here is like a week without a shower in NZ lol
Smart way of presenting a lot of the gear. 👍
Oh and the smile on a certain someone when she could wave that ice-cream in our faces. That must have hit the spot. 😁
Thank you, Jonas! I frequently get asked questions about it so thought this was an alright way to do it. That ice cream was delicious, with little chunks of black licorice 😍 It was a nice surprise to discover New Zealanders enjoy this black, salty candy too!
ニュージーランドは冬でしたね・・・日本は倒れそうなほど暑い夏です。地球は偉大
Lakritsglass, LYCKA ❤❤❤❤
Ja, ikke sant?!😃 Tenk å finne det i New Zealand! Det var en fin overraskelse 😊
Can your tent keep out the cold?
Come to bangladesh by biking
10:22 The weather is so treacherous 😣😣😣😣😣
YOU are awesome! Like myself, you dont let shit weather get you down!!! Its all about the adventure. Been enjoying your channel, footage & adventure.
I'm doing the same, by sail & moto.
kudos to you!
Lawnboy on Moto.
Haha thank you! 😃 Sailing and motorcycles, that's a cool combo! Hope you have some nice trips planned and that you're enjoying yourself!
That area is near my back yard, give or take 350kms, and I often ride on my Ducati Diavel V4 down the West Coast and back through either the Lake District or head to Southland to Invercargill where there is an amazing motorcycle museum. Hope you enjoyed the trip. Take care.
You have a stunning backyard, James! 😊 I had the best time. Enjoy your Thursday and take care!
Black licorice ice cream,now that sounds delicious.
Thank you for sharing your amazing day ✨⚔️🎊
It sure was 😁 Thank you for following along!
I was in the army, so i know what its like going without a shower 😂😂 so i know what you mean.....black licorice ice cream???? I don't know about that 🤔
Hahaha, the like or dislike of black licorice will forever divide people 😂
Te Papa-Atawhai ( Department of Conservation) I like the background Maori presence - gives more depth to the wonderful landscapes 👌😊
It sure does, so much history I never really made time to look into! Being a relatively small country it is really packed with culture and history 😊
I love watching you explore my home country and the roads I have ridden on over the years. I live in Canada these days but used to have a bike stored in NZ and go down every year to ride. If you are ever in Canada I would love to catch up with you. My wife and I could always put you up or pick up from the airport.
Hi, David! Thank you so much, that is very kind of you! 😊 You have a beautiful home country, AND current living in a stunning country as well! Canada is high on my list of travel destinations.
Just think how many people are going through strife and struggle and really need to be where you are in this video. You know you have lived in a camping-style tent more than anyone I have ever known. I can see you might get used to the pitter-patter of the rain, but those wind gusts would be hard to adjust to.
Well said! I feel very privileged to be able to do what I do, and I sure will keep at it as long as I can! I do love camping - going to sleep and waking up in peace in nature is just soooo nice... 😍
Привет, приглашаю в Россию!
A Brit A Bike A Blond vlog from Wanaka but they film only when it's sunny 🌞 But we know it it rains ha
It sure did that day thats for sure 😂

Loving this series Runa, NZ looks absolutely stunning. One day I'll get there, for now I'm just going to sit back and re-watch the series again!
Thank you Brett, happy to hear! 😊 NZ was amazing, loved every part of it! except perhaps the sandflies 😂
@@OffSheGoesADV Oh the sandflies are horrible for sure!! We have them in some areas of Australia as well, they're evil little things!!
New Zealand is ridiculous expensive theses days and overrun by tourists. Stay away please!
Another awesome video so beautiful there you do such amazing job
Thank you so much! 😊 I had a great day in the moody weather
Top infotainment as usual > so, at least I dropped a comment for your YT-algo now 🙃😉🤘
Infotainment, that's a new word for me! I like it 😃 Thank you, really appreciate it!
Parts of the West Coast are better seen in the wet.
In the dry the waterfalls are far less dramatic and new temporary waterfalls appear on the mountain slopes
Good point!
We had a trip down south last year & riding through Haast was the wettest I have ever gotten on a bike, uggh 😢
Haha, it's alright if you know you can dry up once you get to where you're going! But packing down AND up your tent in rain with all your gear wet is no fun
😃
I thought you had moved to Scotland there Runa, we have a word for weather like that called "dreich" and we are well used to it😂Still a stunning ride though👌
Hahaha could have been! I'e had my fair share of rain this year 😂 Dreich, I will try to remember that one!
Another beautiful video thank you for sharing
Thank you for following along! 😊
Nice 🕊️🌹🕊️🎉
Great one Runa, like the gear presentation! 👌🏼💪🏼
Thanks Eric, glad you did 😃 Figured it was a nice and easy way to present some if it, that I get frequent questions about.
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🇧🇷
Your awesome
Great vlog. looking forward to the next episode
Thank you for following along, really appreciate it!
Hi. 🌹👲
Nice
It sure was!
Nice episode Runa 🙂
Thank you, Jarrod, glad you liked it 😄 It's funny how the episodes I sometimes am not happy with the outcome of, turn out being well-liked among my audience! A very nice surprise 😊
Loved the showering advice ,had a laugh at that .
Hahaha 😂 I stick by it!
احبك ❤❤❤
احبك❤❤❤
Hi Runa, Really enjoyed your video, Beautiful views again, in between the rain and mist although it does make it mystical don't you think, Did you like the black liquorice ice-cream, I've never seen it before, Also what do you think of klim motorcycle clothing, and is it fully waterproof. Take care of yourself, Best wishes from Roy in England 😊.
Hi, Roy and greetings to England 😁 Thank you! it was a really nice day despite the weather - or perhaps because of the weather! It sure can be stunning sometimes. I love black licorice in general so this ice cream was a 10/10 for me! I have really enjoyed my KLIM gear and it has kept me nice and dry always (except the boots somehow does get a little wet when walking though streams/puddles). I have switched gear now as you might have seen on instagram, to try something new! I think it's hard to go wrong on gear these days, the quality of most of it is great.
@OffSheGoesADV Hi Runa, I also love black liquorice so if I ever see it in ice cream 🍦 form I will give it a try 😋, I don't do instergram or Facebook or tik tok, I just follow you and a few others on you tube, (your my favourite) But don't tell them 😀. Take care Roy 😊.
@@RoyBarnes-v9p Hahah I promise I won’t 🤐😁 I made home-made ice cream with salt licorice once and can absolutely recommend that!
7:38😟😟😟😣😣🤝🤝🤝
No comments just a big thumbs up .👍
Thank you very much, appreciate it! 😊
Riding in the rain is a skill every biker needs to learn
It's definitely good to get used to. Rain will happen sooner or later on most trips!
🎉🎉🤗🤗💕💕🇿🇦🇿🇦
Awsome video great narratives
Thank you very much! 😊
Beautiful Beautiful Beautiful 🎉🎉🎉
It sure was! 😄
She doesn't even bother to wake up before she starts her nonsense. Just sits and yawns openly.

I mean look at this marvellous countryside and by my thinking you could be back in Norway except the angles are much steeper from on high to the fiords. Thank you Runa for sharing.
It sure was stunning - in many ways similar to Norway indeed, and in other ways so different! I loved it 😊 Thank you for watching, appreciate you following along the series!
Do you have Tattoos on the front of both Shoulders? ;-)
On both arms, but just one shoulder 😊
@@OffSheGoesADV If I'm being honest, I'd like to see some swimsuit scenes with you ;-)
you make riding in the rain look fun
It is, sometimes! When it's not too often 😁
You are an amazing person. Even being in so difficult conditions you are always full of optimism and positive energy! Can't wait for next episode and wish you best of luck and good rest in town!
That's very kind of you, thank you! 😊 I sure did enjoy myself. Bad weather is not that bad when it doesn't happen too often 😃
So glad to see another episode. Need to live vicariously through this after my own Norden got eaten by a van last week :(
Oh no!! I'm so sorry to hear. I hope you are ok?
Brilliant as usual and also you wake up and start recording looking fabulous. Good job not smelly vision lol
Hahaha 😂
Mark sounds like a buzz killer 😂
Hahaha 😂
Better to be safe than sor..... oh hold on....NO, it could of been some really exciting footage watching Runa give it a go?? 🤣🤣
Once again nice production and content, you mix soothing music to the slow mo clouds etc. Nice one😍
Thank you, glad you liked it! Finding the right music takes time but i think it makes such a big difference in what feelings and moods I'm trying to communicate. It's nice when it is noticed and appreciated! 😊
Here I am post operation recovering in hospital and your latest vid comes up recommended. It’s a great diversion from the reality I’m in and it’s wonderful therapy in that respect, like the therapy of riding that I hope to do in a couple of months.
Everyone has their own video/storytelling style. Yours is explanatory and calming. A real treat
I’ve been to Queenstown for 3 days a while back and it’s nice to see someone getting almost the beauty of NZ South Island and enjoying all its majesty. Great series thank you. Take care
Hey you, I hope you are doing alright and wish you a speedy recovery! Thanks for popping in and taking part of my travel 😃 NZ was amazing
@@OffSheGoesADV on the mend. Dodged three “bullets” so far. Itching for a ride post surgery

Hope you enjoyed! 😊
@@OffSheGoesADV very much
@@OffSheGoesADV and always
No sticks, please 😡😡😡😡
what？you still riding that bike？don't you have a job to do? how are you going to support yourself？
It's her life. She can do whatever the fuck she wants to.
Could not have said it better myself 😎
