Destination: Cairnmuir Landslide stabilisation works
Description: A short (3.5 km each way) return walk to the Cairnmuir Landslide stabilisation works, the large scale terraced structure clearly visible on the west bank of the Cromwell Gorge 3 km below Cromwell. The walk follows a good 4WD track starting from a DoC car park at Cornish Point and involves a 200 m climb over 1.5 km, a short descent to a small stream crossing, and a further 100 m climb before descending for 1 km to the slip. Good views over Bannockburn, Cromwell, and Lake Dunstan, with plenty of time for a cafe call on the way home.
Leader: Martin Unwin
