Find hotels in Old Man Range from CA $95

The best areas to stay when visiting the Old Man Range are the nearby towns of Alexandra and Clyde, both located in Central Otago, a short drive from the range.

Alexandra is the larger of the two towns and serves as a central hub for the region. It's situated on the banks of the Clutha River and offers a wider range of accommodation, dining, and shopping options. The town centre, particularly around Centennial Avenue and Tarbert Street, has a good selection of eateries and local businesses. It's a practical base for exploring the wider Central Otago area, including the vineyards and the Old Man Range itself.

For couples seeking a blend of history and relaxation, Clyde is an excellent choice. This historic gold-mining town has retained much of its 19th-century charm, with well-preserved stone buildings housing boutique hotels, cafes, and restaurants. The main street, Sunderland Street, is particularly appealing for its unique shops and dining experiences. Clyde is also the starting point for the Otago Central Rail Trail, offering picturesque walks and cycling opportunities.

To fully enjoy the Old Man Range and its stunning alpine environment, the best time to visit is during the summer months, from December to March.

During this period, the weather is generally warmer and more settled, making it ideal for hiking, exploring, and enjoying the outdoor activities the range offers. You'll find the trails more accessible and the daylight hours longer, giving you ample time to take in the spectacular views. This is great for couples seeking an active holiday or solo travellers looking for adventure.

While late spring (November) and early autumn (April) can also offer pleasant conditions, there's a higher chance of encountering cooler temperatures and more unpredictable weather. Winter (June to August) brings snow and ice, transforming the landscape into a winter wonderland, but access can be challenging, and some roads and tracks may be closed. This is generally only suitable for experienced mountaineers.
