Destination: UPPER CLUTHA TRACK - easy grade riverside walk
Meet at the lakefront as usual at 9.30 am
Directions: on the main road to Luggate turn left into Halliday Road.
Look for the yellow Halliday Road sign across from the Lavender Farm.
Follow road around until you'll see a sign saying Riverrun - Private Road.
This is where we will park the cars and start our walk in the direction of Alberttown, following the Cardrona River for the first part of our walk.
Later on the track goes along the Upper Clutha in the direction of Devils Nook.
This section of the Upper Clutha Track offers us some spectacular views of the river and surrounding mountain ranges in the distance.
Along the way we'll look for a nice sheltered spot to have our lunch and return the same way back after our lunchstop.
Forecast: 50 - 70% chance of some rain, this 5th time we may not be so lucky as on the previous four Monday walks.
During our walk we can discuss a coffee/tea stop option for on the way back to Wanaka.
Walk Leader: Ron de Kraker
