A 150-km walking, cycling and horse-riding track that runs in an arc between Middlemarch, Alexandra and Clyde, along the route of the former Otago Central Railway. It's a great way to take in the region's stunning scenery at a leisurely pace, as well as get a close-up view of the historic townships. The trail is a great success story for the region; it is a nationally recognised tourist attraction and second biggest economic earner for the region (after farming). It attracts 10,000-12,000 users per year and supports a network of bed and breakfasts and cafe/pubs along its route. It has been used as a template for a network of similar trails throughout New Zealand.
