Getting there
Nearest roadend to Spurs Hut
North Opuha car park: 2 hr 30 min
Turn off SH79 (Geraldine-Fairlie Highway) onto Clayton Road 1 km outside Fairlie. After crossing the North Opuha bridge (21 km), turn left down Fox Peak Ski Field Road. There is a DOC car park just before the end of the road.
From the car park, walk up the road, then along the true left bank of the North Opuha River. After leaving the river a marked easement across freehold land (no hunting on easement) gives access to the conservation area.
