REAL JOURNEYS Watch sheep herding and shearing at Walter Peak. From $75 for a Walter Peak visit, including sheep and scones, up to $149 which includes a horse trek around the station's paddocks. BEST TIME TO GOThe Earnslaw operates year-round, apart from a month off for maintenance from early June.
