Roaring Meg track. Coming from Cromwell the car park is on the right at the sharp bend just before the Roaring Meg power station. The track soon joins a farm track up past the reservoir. Lunch will be near Skeleton Stream. Return the way we came (be careful to turn off the farm track) - hopefully before any rain arrives.
Petrol $10.

Monday's walk 5th January 2026

Little Criffell Track starting from the Avalon car park (which is 2km beyond the Larches car park). You may want to have alternative footwear for crossing the Cardrona River. It will be a hot day so bring plenty of water. Starting from 420m we will have lunch when we get fed up of climbing up (say about 1000m, well short of the top at 1400m), then return back the way we came.
Petrol $5.

Bungy Bridge to Arrowtown. Meet at the lake front as usual. We will drop a spare car in Whitechapel Road on the way and park at the bungy bridge. At Arrow Junction the drivers go off to collect the cars and bring them to Arrowtown (Ford Road); then can walk back along the track to meet the rest of the group.
Petrol $10.
