The bookings on the trail in a group are really difficult to get and should be made way in advance.
When I did the Otter the first time, I started totally on my own, since I got the trail hike as a present from my beloved wife and she managed to get me space from a cancellation.
So for single or paired hikers, here is the tip. Call the Park Reservations every Wednesday and one day you'll be lucky.



Anyway, on start this image shows how nature approached me with one of her lesser pretty days. The wind was blowing towards me with a slight inland angle. Within minutes everything was wet. Although the temperature was nice, wet hiking is not one of my favourite tasks.
