Property details

KAHURANGI CALLING

At the Collingwood end of the Heaphy Track, not far from the Brown Hut, this 15 hectare Freehold Title is zoned Rural Residential and perfectly situated to offer a life less ordinary on the boundary of the Kahurangi National Park. The views of Mount Olympus, the Lead Hills and the verdant green Aorere Valley are really something to behold. The Aorere River passes the eastern boundary of the property and heads down the valley to the coast 32kms away, which is pretty magic too.

This is the end of the road, the Heaphy Track is one of New Zealand's Great Walks and starts just beyond this property. Most people drive the 156km from Nelson to either walk or mountain bike depending on the time of year. More and more tourists are using the adjacent DoC Heli pad to get on the track faster. Mountain biking is popular, and there could be an opportunity here to offer glamping style accommodation, a hot shower, refreshments and puncture repair kits!

The area is steeped in history, early Maori explored this area seeking pounamu and 19th century gold prospectors came seeking their fortune, in the early 20th century sawmillers cleared the land which was soon put into production by sheep and dairy farmers. This block is still in pasture, with solar powered electric fences, and gravity fed spring water to the troughs. Now "Orphaned" from the rest of the farm, due to a change in the river crossing, it is time for a new custodian? If you are keen to be off-grid next door to a National Park, this is one not to miss.
