Hike Ballroom Overhang Track, Paparoa National Park, New Zealand
Experience some of the park's finest limestone features, including a large limestone outcrop.
Some of the park’s finest limestone features are in this area. The Ballroom Overhang, about 500 m upstream from the Fox River/Dilemma Creek confluence, is a large limestone outcrop providing a safe place to shelter or camp overnight. It’s also a good option to visit as a half-day hike.
The Ballroom is reached via the Inland Pack Track, starting from the car park at the mouth of the Fox River. The first part of the track follows along the true right of the river through bush and over braided riverbed sections. After about 30 minutes a river crossing is required to re-join the track on the true left of the river, where it continues for 2 km through the gorge, frequently climbing and dropping to negotiate bluffs.
The Ballroom Overhang is reached via the Inland Pack Track, signposted by the main road bridge at Fox River, 12 km north of Punakaiki.
