Tobins Track and Mt Beetham Summit Trail

Tobins Track + Mt Beetham Summit Trail (Arrowtown)

Tobins Track, named after the person who built and maintained the road in the 1870s, is one of the many easy walking tracks in Arrowtown. In Autumn seasons, the track is surrounded with bright red trees, while the sides of the track are covered with their fallen autumn leaves. At the furthest end of Tobins Track, you may continue your hike through Mt Beetham Summit Trail for a stunning 360 views of the mountain ranges surrounding Arrowtown.
