Arrowtown to Queenstown


Saturday 19th January, 2013   4.5 hrs  21 kms

An easy morning walk on a cycle way / minor roads, leaving Arrowtown by a back route and then passing through the grounds of the Millbrook Resort.. Continued on through pleasant rolling country towards the Shotover River, following it downstream under some old willows (picture) for a morning tea stop at the old Shotover Bridge - restored for pedestrian / cycle use by a Rotary project.

Then on under the current road bridge, and over the Frankton Flats to the bottom end of the Frankton arm of Lake Wakatipu.

From there a pleasant walk on the cycleway along the edge of the lake all the way to the Queenstown Gardens, and then over a little rise to the hubub of the Queenstown waterfront.
