Monday's Walk 27th February 2023

Destination: Old Woman Hut

Description: An upland ramble along a good 4WD track from the Nevis Road and Duffers Saddle to the Old Woman Hut at the northern end of the Old Woman Range. Panoramic views over the Nevis Valley, Bannockburn, and all the main Central Otago ranges. 5.5 km each way with a 250 m height gain.

Walk leader: Martin Unwin

Monday's Walk 20th February 2023

Bush Creek Walkway, Arrowtown

A return walk from the Chinese village in Arrowtown to the saddle at the head of Bush Creek and great views over Speargrass Flat and Lake Hayes. 5.5 km each way with a 400 m height gain. The track was upgraded to good MTB standard a year or so ago so is much easier walking than it used to be, with a good surface and all stream crossings bridged. If the nor'wester gets unpleasantly strong a tussock clearing 1 km before the saddle makes a good alternative turnaround point.
