We drove north, non-stop, to Mole Creek. From here we followed the signs and arrived at the Arm River Track car park at about 11pm. Sleeping in the back of the station wagon we had a surprisingly good sleep under a brilliant starry night. Arm River Track to Pelion Hut Day break saw the skies clear and the temperature a cool 3°. We started walking at 7.30am. At the start, the track climbs steeply for about 40 minutes. The rest of the walk to Pelion Plains is relatively flat. The scenery and terrain is varying, making for a pleasant walk. There has been quite a bit of work done on the track. Raised long timber boards have been installed over long sec...
