Construction of trail linking Queenstown and Cromwell underway, Wānaka next
Work has started on a trail linking Queenstown to Cromwell through the spectacular Kawarau Gorge.
The cycling and walking trail will cross 32km of awe-inspiring and often challenging terrain, from the Nevis Bluff, at Gibbston, to Bannockburn, near Cromwell.
It will tie in with existing trails between Queenstown and Gibbston, and the widely acclaimed Lake Dunstan Trail, from Cromwell to Clyde.
