Trail Notes

This trail follows what was originally a short section of the bridle trail that once connected Glenorchy and Queenstown. It’s an intermediate (Grade 3) single track with an easy-to-follow trail. Dogs (on leashes) are allowed and the trail is two directions so be sure to keep an eye out for oncoming traffic.

The trail takes you from Arawata Terrace in Fernhill running parallel to Glenorchy Queenstown road until it nears Sunshine Bay.

But wait, there's more...
