SUMMARY:Maitland Ridge Circuit
URL;VALUE=URI:https://www.live.nelsontrampingclub.org.nz/component/jevents/1259/maitland-
 ridge-circuit?Itemid=111&tmpl=component
DESCRIPTION:This relatively new loop connects Beeby’s Knob with Red Hills Hut, creating
  a circuit. The track was developed by the MTB Trails Trust and now doubles
  as Te Araroa Trail.\nDescription:\nFrom Six Mile car park, follow the trac
 k a short distance to the junction with the track that heads left to join W
 ots up Doc. This track climbs for 3.9 km to connect with Wots up Doc, about
  1 km above From Tophouse Rd. Wots Up Doc sweeps back and forth across the 
 4WD road, the latter taking a more direct route upwards. Near the top of th
 e range the track heads through a section of beech forest with mossy underg
 rowth. At the tree line you will reach the turnoff to Maitland Ridge Track;
  continuing straight is the way to Beeby’s Knob (1442 m) and Beeby’s Hut.\n
 Maitland Ridge Track descends nearly non-stop through stunted mountain beec
 h to a saddle at 1020 m elevation, then climbs gradually through a series o
 f zig-zags toward point 1202 m, passing clearings that allow impressive vie
 ws across Wairau Valley to Raglan Range. After point 1202 m the track goes 
 through a slightly-technical descent, before crossing another saddle and cl
 imbing again to the top of the final descent down a rough 4WD track down to
  Red Hills Hut.\nFrom Red Hills Hut, descend down Red Hills Track (a 4WD ro
 ad). After 5 km the 4WD road becomes a shared track, which heads through be
 ech forest for 2 km back to Six Mile car park.\nMap: https://nelsontrails.c

 Start at Six Mile car park. Ends: Tophouse Rd at the bottom of Beeby’s Knob
