A third drive past my fave lake Pukaki and a third chance to take photos. Shame I missed the shout out for massages there!
The Hooker Valley track is a very popular and well pathed route. A little up and down but generally an easy hike with stunning views.
Have I ever mentioned I like bridges?
You can see the end of the Hooker Glacier at the far end of the lake under Mount Cook and plenty of icebergs floating into the lake, having calved from the glacier.
We then did a hike up to view the Tasman glacier. Very steep, but worthwhile!
A long drive to our Queenstown home for a couple of nights. Could do with a little less walking for a few days!
Rather nice that, even as visitors, we are included in the NZ census today.
