Description

The Brodrick Pass Trek is a 2 day crossing of New Zealand's Main Divide.

The trek crosses a wide variety of landscapes - open river flats and gentle beech forests to rugged, snow-covered mountain tops.

It is a "Kiwi Classic" linking the Hopkins/Huxley Valleys to the less accessible Landsborough Wilderness Area. The trekking route leads up the Hopkins Valley and into the North Branch of the Huxley River to Brodrick Hut.

From there an alpine crossing of the Main Divide via Brodrick Pass is followed by a steep descent to the Landsborough Valley and Creswicke Flat Hut. Enjoy this trip with a professional IFMGA / NZMGA alpine trekking guide and raft out the Landsborough River with our partner Hidden Valleys Rafting: &rarr; <a href="https://alpinerecreation.com/brodrickpass.html">Brodrick Pass - Landsborough River Trek & Raft Adventure</a>
