Information

Old Coach Road walk

Time: 30 min return

This pleasant forest walk starts and finishes near Greyneys Shelter, 6 km south of Arthur’s Pass village. It follows a gently graded section of the century-old coach road and leads back to the shelter on a more recent track. The Coach Road was cut into the hillside to avoid the Bealey riverbed, which is prone to floods.

You can still see sections of old rock wall along one part of the track. It is suitable, but challenging for people using wheelchairs and for young children. A goody, enjoy!
