Follow the track along its history of Limestone, with the one of seven 1800’s lime kiln remains. Hear the local birdsong of the Piwakawaka (Fantail), Tui and Bellbird through the forest and surrounding native bush. Your guide will give history and local knowledge about the area and will walk at your own pace. Option to head up the quick jaunt of Picnic Point, this is where the spectacular views of Lake Wakatipu are pronounced, its breathtaking up a steep track but worth every second.
A return stroll towards the car park will take you through the Beech and Manuka trees as your guide transports you to the Wien Region od Gibbston Valley.
