Otago
Lake Wakatipu Hazard Zone - OPEN
(North to South)
The trailheads on either side of the Lake are at Queenstown and at the Greenstone Carpark. They make natural beginning or end points for Te Araroa section trampers so it's really only through-trampers that have to deal with the issue of getting from one trailhead to the other. There are several options available and trampers can use whatever safe method they like without it compromising the integrity of their thru-tramp.
- Vehicles on road or track Take extreme care if walking to Glenorchy/Kinloch
- Track exposed to sun, wind or cold
- Weather extremes
- Few water sources
