Linnburn Runs Road is an easy, scenic gravel road in inland Otago that links several backcountry routes together. It connects Old Dunstan Road with Onslow Lake Road via Deep Creek Road, making it a handy link for stitching together a longer day out in the area. The surface is relatively smooth gravel and the route is straightforward, so it suits most vehicles and makes a relaxed leg between the more demanding tracks nearby. The setting is classic Central Otago high-country rolling tussock and open farmland, with big skies and far-reaching views. Keep an eye out for plenty of hawks soaring overhead. There's little in the way of technical challenge here, so it's more about the scenery and the connection it provides than the driving itself.
