Te Araroa – Day 61

Bushcamp to Arrowtown

20.2 miles

Mile 1639.1

It was a slow moving morning of steep climbs, followed by steep ascents. My knees weren’t very happy about it.

After making it over Roses Saddle, things chilled out a bit thankfully.

After passing through the abandoned gold mine settlement of Macetown, I joined a dirt road that took me into a neat little town named Arrowtown.

I ended up camping at the Holiday Park in town, but didn’t get a wink of sleep thanks to the dude snoring his brains out in the tent next to me…thanks bro!

Cheers!
