Access |
Lots of access points off Wharatea Mine Road (aka Mount Rochford Road), ca 1 km south of Denniston village. To explore eastwards, start at the entrance to the MTB park, about 1.2 km from the junction with Burnetts Face Road. For a good loop walk, watch out for the sign for Sullivans Track, on the right, about 600 metres further on. |
Description |
An extensive network of shared MTB tracks that wind across this open plateau. Mainly followinbg old forestry and mining roads. Signage is ambiguous, and the DoC website seems to be out-of-date about this whole area (including the Denniston historical walks): dogs seem to be allowed on some trails but notb others - but signage is unclear. Use your judgement . . . |
