The St James Walkway is a 66 kilometres (41 mi)-long subalpine tramping (i.e. the New Zealand term for 'hiking') track located in the Lewis Pass area of the South Island of New Zealand.
The St James Walkway was the first walking track in New Zealand to be built in a sub-alpine area.
[2] The track ends are 16 kilometres (9.9 mi) apart via State Highway 7, and the Boyle Village parking area is considered more secure for leaving a vehicle.
Cannibal Gorge is formed by the right branch of the Maruia River, and the track follows it to Cannibal Gorge Hut and continues to Ada Hut at Ada Pass at 1,008 metres (3,307 ft).
More than half of the track is part of Te Araroa, which joins between Christopher and Anne Huts at the Waiau River.
