A Historical Gold & Coal history Walk, PART TWO OF THREE

From part one we start the first loop walk from the car park 9 km along Soldiers – Big River Road, which leaves the Reefton highway (SH7) just south of town. Scattered among old coal-mine workings, you will find remains of makeshift winch equipment, including an old Leyland lorry. You will also see distinctive coal-measure vegetation and views of the Victoria and Paparoa ranges. We continue the adventure on part 2 and 3 to Blacks point where we do another 14km loop track around many more mine sites
