Thursday 27th February - Ranfurly to Middlemarch

We have now completed the entire rail trail and what good fun it all was. It gets nine out of ten in my book!

Today was all mostly downhill so the wheels turned easily for the most part.

We started by a look around Ranfurly as we had wizzed through it when we arrived yesterday afternoon.

There was some artwork on the way. It is interesting that things look different dependant on the angle you take the photograph from.

Some fantastic scenery on the way!

We stopped at the Otago Central Hotel for a coffee and had a packed lunch just after as the reviews of the hotel on trip advisor were not good.

Before we knew it we were at the end and time to set up camp.

The campsite has an interesting railway theme!

 

Camp kitchen is a lovely old railway cabin! We were thrilled with the camp site at Middlemarch and would thoroughly recommend it to anyone.
