Daly's Clearing Hut

Tracks and walks
This track is relatively flat but requires several river crossings as it follows an old tramline through the spectacular Waitawheta Gorge.
This is a multi-day tramp using rugged, unmarked routes. Trampers will need to camp in addition to staying in huts.
A highlight along this track is the extensive groves of nikau nestled under tall tawa, kohekohe and puketea forest.
