Mr Crompton has reached the Horahora Estuary on the Whangarei Coast, a fitting milestone as he celebrates his birthday on his epic adventure down to Bluff…

Check out the latest shots and video as he makes use of his walking sticks, is dwarfed by forest giants, fords rivers and enjoys the beautiful scenery.

If you’d like to support him on this walk, you can make a donation towards our new Art Room here.
