About the Lakehead Track hike

Set in Nelson Lakes National Park, Lakehead Track is a point-to-point route of 8.8 miles. Expect 413 feet of climbing between 2,012 feet and 2,190 feet. The steepest pitch reaches 8 percent, against an average of 47 feet of gain per mile. On our gain-and-distance scale it falls in the moderate band. The nearest town is Richmond, 59.6 km away.

177 elevation samples along Lakehead Track make up the profile on this page and the contour work on the print, so a steep section shows as a steep line, not a flat one. The high point comes at the far end of the route. Every style on this page uses that data; only the palette and layout change.

The area

Nelson Lakes National Park is in the South Island of New Zealand, at the northern end of the Southern Alps. It was created in 1956 (one of four created in the 1950s).
