From Nelson heading to Blenheim turn left before crossing the Wairau River bridge and head down river on the north bank on the Kaituna road. Turn left up the Waikakaho Valley Rd. The start of the track is signposted. The first part of the track is legal access but goes through a farm. Don't chase stock and get them excited. For map see Wakakaho Track Map The track follows  a reasonable steep grade. The surface is good most of the way with a few roots and rocks to get over. You come across remains of old mining gear and dwellings well up into the bush. The saddle at 800m is reached in 1-2 hours. For 20 -30 minutes after the saddle there is a lot of walking until you come out on to a spur leading to the Cullens bush edge. From the bush edge the track is marked with poles and a series of switchbacks takes you down into the valley. From here there is a good benched track all the way out to Cullensville. Once on the road it is a 5km cruise to Linkwater.	GOLD SPONSORS BRONZE SPONSORS
