The Otago Central Rail Trail can be travelled in either direction and access is available at various locations. Use this map to orientate yourself. To find out more information about a particular section of the Rail Trail – click on your chosen town. The elevation map shows the distances between towns plus the climbs and descents along the trail – remember because the trail was once a railway line any climb is gradual and not steep. Clyde, Alexandra, Chatto Creek, Lauder, Oturehua, Wedderburn, Ranfurly, Waipiata Kokonga, Hyde and Middlemarch are just some of the towns adjacent or near to the trail. Make sure you plan enough time to explore them and others close by. Click the sections of the map below to view more information on that section of the Rail Trail.
