April 2003, aired on TVOne, New Zealand
In 2003 Craig went to Nepal to film his travel experiences for the New Zealand
show, Intrepid Journeys.
From NZoom:
There were two pieces of advice Craig Parker was given as he prepared
to tackle trekking and white water rafting in Nepal - do not drink the water
and
switch
off your Western mind.
Parker's warts-and-all trip to Nepal provided the Mercy Peak star with the
kind of challenge that even the toughest acting gig would struggle to match.
Sir Edmund Hillary's mountain climbing crown may not be under threat, but Parker
gamely dons trekking boots and a backpack to clamber to the height of Mount
Cook.
"It was so much harder than I though it would be," he says. "I
think
we were all surprised by how tough that was."
