Owaka
This track is a scenic walk through a historic reserve down to an interesting 19th century historic railway tunnel that visitors can explore around. The walk follows the fence line down to the old railway formation, which leads to the tunnel. A torch is recommended to fully appreciated the intricate brick work in the tunnel’s construction.
The track is well signposted off SH92, five km north of Owaka.
