Years ago an effort was made to divert the Shotover River in order to mine the river bed for Gold.
The Oxenbridge Tunnel was not a financial success but it remains a monument to the hardy men of the past who toiled in search of riches.
The Tunnel today is now a point of interest to curious tourists and rafting enthusiasts.
To get there follow the Oxenbridge Tunnel Road from Arthur's Point Village.
