Otematata Station

Experience the scale and beauty of New Zealand’s high country – by walking, biking or horse riding your way across Otematata Station’s elevated tablelands and wide, open valleys.

At 400 square kilometres, Otematata Station is one of New Zealand’s largest privately-owned stations. While you’re exploring some or all of the 150 km of tracks open to visitors, day-to-day farming continues around you – dogs barking in the distance, sheep quietly growing Icebreaker’s famous merino wool and cows watching with curious indifference. And, at the end of each day, settle into genuine musterers’ accommodation, set against “big” landscapes.
