Marble Hill

 

MARBLE HILL: SH7 Lewis Pass between Hanmer and Springs Junction. (6.5k from Springs). A large

DOC camp set in spectacular mountain country, complete with rivers and great beech forests. DOC call it

West Coast, It is West of Lewis Pass so that’s probably why.

 

You can park up right amongst the beech trees or if you prefer more sun, go out on the grassy terraces. Better to go a fair way into the Reserve as it gets you away from the road....we like quiet.. Good toilets, water, bbq’s, and rubbish facilities.

Good tramps, make sure you at least do the short walk to the Sluice Box, an impressive narrow gorge, where the water colour changes with the passing of day, from green to blue. You can carry on for the 3 hour

tramp to Lake Daniells, which follows the Alfred River through magnificent Red Beech forest. Lots of bird life and keep your eyes open for a visit from the friendly Tom Tit, a neat little black and yellow fellow who

will hop around your feet, perch on your stick, or pose for a photo!!
