Sidetracked in Southland (Part Two)

Exploring the lesser-known wonders of Western Southland, Aotearoa New Zealand

IN Part One last week, I travelled from Kingston, on Lake Wakatipu, to Clifden in Western Southland.

A part of the region accessible from Tūātapere and Clifden, with some key placenames added for this post. Map data (2022) from LINZ via NZ Topo Map, CC BY 4.0. North at top.

From Clifden, the Lilburn Valley Road extends for 36 km, the last twenty of them gravel, to Lake Hauroko.
