This track begins about 10km before you reach Lake Coleridge Village with a small car park and DOC sign on Coleridge Road.
Follow orange markers across farmland with some stream crossings.
After 1 hour, a 10 minute side track takes you to Clay Valley Bush Covenant. After another hour, a 30 minute side track takes you to Conical Knoll Bush Covenant.
The main route continues another 2 hours to climb Big Ben (back country tramping experience required).
Return on the same track to the car park.
Mountain bikes and dogs are not permitted on the track.
The track is provided courtesy of the owners of Dry Acheron and Big Ben Stations. Please keep to the marked route.
Make sure you are well prepared before heading to the Lake Coleridge district. There is limited cellphone coverage in the area and the nearest township services are nearly an hour's drive away in Methven or Darfield.
