For hikers seeking a challenging walk, the Beverley Price Loop Track offers an exhilarating adventure. To fully enjoy this track, it is recommended to follow it in a clockwise direction. Starting by following the easy walk to Pohuehue waterfall, then simply veer off and follow the markers that lead up the gully until you reach the junction with the forestry road. Here, turn right and continue along the ridge until you reach the clearly marked turnoff. Take this track to complete the loop, and you will eventually return to the bridge you first crossed near the car park. It's important to note that the track can be steep and may have rough, slippery, and muddy sections. Take caution while hiking to ensure your safety.
