The outing covers an ambitious distance and climbs some sizeable hills, but it is not a race. It is a relaxed ride, with the accent on enjoyment and taking time to explore the country- side. The organisers provide a sag-wagon – a support vehicle – to pick up riders who want to shorten the route.

  • Buskin Track and Others, Eight Years On
    Buskin Track and Others, Eight Years On The Mapping of Dunedin’s Physically Evident Tracks Pete McDonald March 2013 41-Peg Track (also called Tomahawk Track), Otago Peninsula. A PDF copy of this document is available from: http://homepages.vodafone.co.nz/~pete.mcd/ut/UT2013.pdf If you print this document, please be aware that the map extracts rely heavily on colour and would be difficult to interpret if printed in black and white. 2 3 Contents Introduction 4 Type 1. Urban Tracks, Clusters, and Short Tracks (under 1 km) 9 Type 2. Straightforward Candidates for Mapping 21 Type 3. Routes 37 Summary 45 Appendix 1: Categories of Tracks: Five Become Two 48 Appendix 2: List of Tracks and Routes Mentioned in this Paper 49 Notes and Acknowledgments 52 4 Introduction Background In August 2003 the first Acland report on walking access to the New Zealand outdoors emphasised the need for accurate information on access.1 The maps that were then read- ily available to the public met the needs of outdoor recreators only partially. To examine one aspect of this problem more deeply, in 2005 I looked into the incomplete recording of accessways, walking tracks and tramping routes on the LINZ (Land Information New Zealand) 1:50,000 topographic maps of the Dunedin area. Dunedin is an unusual city in that it includes extensive tracts of farmland and remote hill-country. To the north, a tongue of Dunedin extends to Hyde and the Rock and Pillar Range. To the west, the Old Dunstan Road leaves the city limits when it sidles over the Lammermoor Range.

So put on your sneakers, tie up your boots and get walking. And here to help is the New Zealand Conservation Authority’s revision of the walkways booklet. Places to go, things to see. Long walks, short walks, hard ones and doddles, walks for the fit to the couch potatoes. Walks on your doorstep and further afield. Things to see and experience; forests and birds, historic sites and cultural icons. This booklet gives you the choices and makes it easy to find a walk that suits you. Since our last booklet in 1984, heaps of new walks have been developed. This brings you up to date, but be sure to check with your Department of Conservation office or the local information centre that the walk you choose hasn’t changed or been temporarily closed before you set off. They may also be able to give you more detailed information about a walk than we have been able to include in this booklet.
