The Journey
Description
See Conical Hill on NZ topo maps
How could you possibly improve on a day spent running what to me is the greatest of our Great Walks? The answer is simple - throw in a quick scamper up Conical Hill from the Harris Saddle and marvel at the panoramic views. So of course that's the plan!
We'll be running the famous Routeburn Track from the Glenorchy side, finishing at The Divide.
Important Notes
Support runners need to be self-sufficient in regards to transport to the start and back from the finish. While we MAY be able to offer some assistance this CANNOT be guaranteed.
