Introducing Makarora
At Makarora you’ve left the West Coast and entered Otago, but the township still has a West Coast frontier feel. Visit the DOC visitor information centre (03-443 8365; www.makarora.co.nz; SH6; 8am-4.45pm daily Nov-Apr, 8am-4.45pm Mon-Fri May-Oct) at the Makarora Wilderness Resort for conditions and routes before undertaking any regional tramps.
