Travel off the beaten track and immerse yourself in the true essence of New Zealand's rugged high country. This journey offers a profound connection to New Zealand's agricultural heritage set against a backdrop of memorable natural beauty.
Beginning at Port Chalmers, you'll meet your local guide and step into an all-terrain vehicle for an exhilarating journey that winds through the historic streets of Dunedin before climbing into the spectacular highlands of inland Otago.
Your destination is Barewood Station, an impressive and sprawling high-country farm encompassing 271 paddocks. Here, you'll step into the daily rhythm of authentic New Zealand farming life. Experience vast, open landscapes that stretch as far as the eye can see, dotted with roaming sheep and cattle. View the timeless traditions of livestock management firsthand as farmers move their stock across the land.
Along the way, discover the fascinating story behind Barewood Station, from its innovative approach to sustainable farming and environmental stewardship to the way its premium products make their way to markets both near and far.
Notes:
You will be visiting a working farm. Dress in clothing that is readily washable. Wear sturdy non-skid walking shoes. Shade is limited; to avoid sunburn, wear light, long clothing suitable for use as a cover-up. Bring a hat and sunglasses; wear biodegradable/reef-safe sunscreen. Bring bottled water. Tour is operated in an all-terrain vehicle and not a regular coach. The all-terrain vehicle sits high off the ground and requires climbing 2–3 large steps to board; a moderate level of agility is required.
