A trip to the tarns of the St Arnaud Range, where there is great camping, will also showcase the work done by DOC and Friends of Rotoiti to eradicate pests and boost bird numbers around Lake Rotoiti.
The track winds its way from Kerr Bay steadily up a spur to the St Arnaud Ridge, with views of the lake, Mt Robert, the Travers Range and Mt Arthur framed by beech, astelia and mistletoe.
Opportunities for longer trips in the region abound.
