Unfortunately this trig has seen better days. Looks like some people just don't care which is sad. Anyway, there are some really nice views from the top of this hill. They'd be even better if the neighbouring farm dealt to the gorse!
This trig is quite a trek to get to. The quickest way up is from Brook Valley but that route is very steep. Posted time from there is 1 hour 15 minutes one way.
A slightly more relaxed route is up from Marsden Valley. There are a number of track / trail options from there, either via Barnicoat Hill or the Involution mountain bike trail. This will take about 2 hours one way. (Much quicker on the way back if you come on a bike)
State/Territory: South Island NZ
