Starting in Arrowtown, the Coronet Loop can be ridden in both directions but preference is clockwise. Start by climbing the Bush Creek Trail and traversing the Coronet Face Water Race towards Skippers Saddle. Thrill seekers should take a diversion down Hot Rod and climb back up Dan O'Connell track before heading up over Tradesmans and into Pack Track and Sack (grade 4). This section can be bypassed on the original Pack Track or Skippers Road. Climb out of Long Gully into Greengate and Deep Creeks on sections of historic pack track, before descending Eight Mile Creek on an old water race back to the Macetown Road. Follow the signs along the old benched miners trail to keep your feet dry, and finish on the Arrow Gorge Trail or via the Macetown Road if you don't mind getting wet. Total loop is approx 50km of epic backcountry terrain.
