Alert Torrent Bay bridge replacement

Torrent River Bridge on the high tide track between Anchorage and Torrent Bay, giving access to Cleopatra’s Pool, is being replaced. 

Cleopatra’s Pool and access track, along with sections of the high tide track will be closed to the public between 29 October and 12 November 2024.

During this time the whole construction area is a WorkSafe NZ notifiable site and entry is strictly prohibited, for any reason.

An alternative option for the high tide track involves wading through the Torrent River, this is available four hours either side of low tide. Note there are some slippery rocks, and that river flow may fluctuate depending on rainfall and tides.
