Description
See Dun Mountain on NZ topo maps
Starting near Pelorus Bridge we'll follow rough single track alongside the Pelorus River before launching into a big climb up to Dun Saddle and beyond to the rocky summit of Dun Mountain. After re-tracing our steps back to the Saddle we'll pick up the Dun Mountain Walkway and enjoy a long, gradual descent all the way into Nelson to complete a classic crossing.
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.
