The Molesworth Muster Trail follows the Acheron Road through Molesworth Station, the largest and most remote working farm in New Zealand.
The 207km journey from Blenheim to Hanmer Springs follows the Awatere River, then crosses Wards Pass to follow the Acheron River to where it joins the Clarence.
It's a surprising and unforgettable journey through landscapes of shifting screes, wide grasslands and steep hillsides. Terminal and lateral moraines, glacial outwash plains, hanging valleys and waterfalls, cirque basins, tarns and arêtes provide stark reminders of the region’s past ice ages.
Stay the night at the cosy and comfortable oasis that is Middlehurst Station and enjoy hearty meals on the high country Merino sheep farm.
E-bikes available.
