Access |
Take Blackford Road off SH77 in Mount Hutt and continue on this (becomes Double Hill Run Road) for ca. 30 km. Tracks run off right and left at the sign 'Stream Easement'. A third track to Homestead Hill leads off about 2.5 km further on, near the end of Ensors Road. |
Description |
From the sign, a 4WD track leads via an easement north to Double Hill, where the land is open for rambling. The stream easement, opposite, is also dog-friendly and leads to Glenariffe Stream - but you'll have to cross Double Hill Stream on the way. The third easement to Homestead Hill involves a steep climb up into the Palmer Range. |
