This pleasant forest walk starts and finishes near Greyneys Shelter, six km east of Arthur’s Pass Village. It follows a gently-graded section of the century-old coach road and leads back to the shelter on a more recent track.

The coach road was cut into the hillside to avoid the Bealey riverbed, which is prone to floods. You can still see sections of old rock-walling along one part of the track. It is suitable for all-terrain baby buggies. At the northern end of the track there is a rope handrail. You can use it for guidance, so shut your eyes and use your other senses as you move through the forest.

The track begins 6 km east of Arthur's Pass Village on SH 73. 

Take warm clothing and raincoat, sunhat and sunscreen, something to eat and drink and strong footwear. Mountain weather can change quickly.
