Mt. Somers is the gateway to -
o recreational lakes (boating and fishing) in the Ashburton Gorge high country
o Mount Sunday where part of the ‘Lord of the Rings’ trilogy was filmed
o Rivers, walkways and bush reserves, and is close to Mt Hutt Skifield
The area is rich in history and renowned for its mineral resources and geological uniqueness.
