Southern Circuit Destinations

The Southern Circuit, gateway to Mason Bay, is regarded as a remote, challenging tramp needing good fitness and route-finding skills. It features a side trip to the rocky summit of Mt Rakeahua and access is via the North West Circuit Track, on foot from Halfmoon Bay via North Arm or by boat.

Locations include Freshwater River, Fred’s Camp and Rakeahua (all serviceable by water taxi), as well as Doughboy and Mason Bay.
