Directions

From Christchurch: Butlers Bush is approximately 75km east of Christchurch on SH73. Drive through Sheffield (consider stopping for a great pie) and Springfield. The entrance to parking will be on the long straight following the left-hand corner after crossing the Kowhai River (about 9 km from Springfield). 

From Castle Hill or Cheeseman: Head back over Porters Pass. Look for O signs on the long straight (5km after the bottom of the Pass) and turn left into paddock. Allow 35 mins from Cheeseman Lodge and 20 mins from Castle Hill.

Important:  This is a main highway so take care turning. If the way is not clear, or there is following traffic consider pulling off to the left and waiting for a clear space before turning into the parking area.

 

Parking

 Parking will be in a paddock next to the highway. Please park as directed by officials.
