Bike n Hike
World famous in New Zealand - The Routeburn Track
The ride from Glenorchy to the Routeburn is spectacular but this is just the beginning. Walk the half hour loop track through moss covered beech forest or walk the three hours return to Forge Flat. Here you'll see deep emerald pools of water which make fabulous swimming holes for the very brave or beautiful lunch spots for those more sensible.
Distance: Approximately 25kms each way.
