Here you will receive a complete outline of your walk, collect equipment, purchase last minute items, complete the required medical forms, and ask answer any questions that you may have. It is also a good opportunity to meet your fellow walkers. Please advise our reservations department if you are unable to attend the Pre-Track Briefing strongly advised to attend.
Your morning coach trip from Queenstown follows Lake Wakatipu to Glenorchy, and around the lake to the mouth of the fabled Greenstone River, where you will start the walk. You will follow the Greenstone track into the stately red beech forest, returning to the river with views of Mt Christina as you walk up the final river flats to Steele Creek Lodge. After a hearty breakfast, walk through a sea of red tussock on the river flats. Ancient pines and cottonwoods cling to the sheer mountain sides, which come alive with water on rainy days.
This is your chance to explore the area on foot, row on the lake or just relax and read a novel.
Take a stroll to the waterfall, or hike up to the lookout for a view down the river flats and your first glimpse of the Routeburn Track. Today you will cross the main divide via the Greenstone Saddle and glimpse mountains and lakes through lush forest. Here you can sit among the alpine plants and gaze down three valleys from which water fl ows to three different coasts. You then descend back down to Lake Howden hut for a hot drink and picnic lunch, before gradually climbing through lush silver beech forest to the base of Earland Falls, quite a sight in wet weather!
You will look over the Hollyford Valley to the ice capped Darran Mountains before descending to the splendid lodge at Lake Mackenzie where refreshments, a hot shower, three course meal and a comfortable bed are waiting.

You leave the ancient forest draped in moss and lichen and enter the world of daisies, buttercups, gentians and edelweiss. After lunch at the Harris Saddle, you can ascend Conical Hill for a panoramic view of the surrounding peaks. After walking around Lake Harris you descend into the upper basins of the Routeburn Valley, with the towering mountains above. Spend your final night of luxury at the beautifully located Routeburn Falls Lodge where you will be treated to a special celebratory dinner.
Take time to enjoy the dramatic landscape around the Falls, before descending to the alpine pastures of the Routeburn Flats.
