Ben Lomond Track, Otago Region, New Zealand 

The Ben Lomond Track is a demanding climb, but on clear days trampers are rewarded at the summit with spectacular panoramic views.

The track begins among Douglas fir on Skyline Access Road/Tiki Trail. At about 800m altitude, you enter alpine tussocks and shrubs, climbing to the 1326m Ben Lomond Saddle (Ben Lomond Station). The track gets steeper and rougher as it approaches Ben Lomond’s 1,748m summit.

In fine weather, the view includes Mounts Earnslaw/Pikirakatahi and Aspiring/Tititea.

From April to November, be prepared for snow and ice above the bushline.
