53,000 hectares of land protected by covenants.

The covenants will protect iconic high country over most of Motatapu, Mount Soho, Glencoe and Coronet Peak stations.
The stations cover a large part of the land between Lake Wanaka and Arrowtown, and are bordered by the Shotover River and the Cardrona Valley - an area equal in size to the combined areas of Abel Tasman and Paparoa national parks.
