Description

Along the Rangitata DOC track, here's a hidden spot to skinny dip. At the start of the Rangitata Diversion Race (RDR) follow the marked public access easement up the face of the terrace. Once this section has been climbed the route is relatively easy-going and gives good views down into the Rangitata Gorge. The RDR ends at Highbank Power Station. No dogs.
