The route consists of open grassy flats and sometimes unmarked braided river travel, marked tracks through West Coast bush, an alpine crossing and negotiating gorges in the upper Trent River. Beyond Elizabeth Hut a marked route continues over the Trent Saddle (3 hr) to Top Trent (Lagoon) Hut (another 2 hr). From Top Trent Hut there is unmarked riverbed travel down the Trent River to the Mid Trent Hut (6 hr). The route out to the Waikiti Downs carpark via the Tutaekuri River is 7 hr, with an optional side trip to stay at Tutaekuri Hut (45 min detour up the Tutaekuri River). It can be completed in either direction.
