Lake Ohau Station, Lake Ohau

Lake Ohau Station occupies a commanding position within the majestic Southern Alps. With kilometres of pristine Lake Ohau frontage and a remarkable sense of scale and seclusion, this is one of the truly significant high-country estates. Comprising approximately 8,322 hectares held in two freehold titles, Lake Ohau Station is offered to the market publicly for the first time in nearly 20 years. Carefully stewarded, the Station’s natural environment has been thoughtfully preserved, protecting an exceptional alpine landscape of national significance. Currently operated as a high country farming enterprise, the property supports approximately 6,500 Merino sheep and 150 cattle. The landholding is exceptionally diverse, extending from broad lakefront terraces and rolling pastureland through to dramatic alpine basins and soaring mountain peaks. Mount Peterson and Mount Stafford, rising to 2,220 metres, anchor the station’s high country backdrop, while both the Maitland and Temple Valleys form part of this expansive estate. Improvements include two dwellings along with the ruins of an historic 1800s stone homestead, associated farm buildings, plus an established lodge for visitor accommodation. The Station also enjoys private river systems, mature shelter plantings, abundant native birdlife, and a rare sense of untouched wilderness. Lake Ohau Station sits at the gateway to one of the South Island’s most celebrated outdoor environments. An on-site airstrip and helicopter access complement the Station with immediate proximity to heliskiing in the Ben Ohau Range, tramping through alpine valleys, world-class fishing and watersports, jet-boating on Lake Ohau, as well as exceptional game hunting for Red Deer, Tahr and Chamois on the Station. Ohau ski field also borders the station. A property of rare scale and presence, Lake Ohau Station seamlessly blends the romance and heritage of New Zealand’s high country with compelling future potential.
