Travel guide of Hooker Valley Track
We were on our way to Hooker Lake in New Zealand. While hiking we realized that path to the location is more magnificent than the lake itself.
After hiking to the well-known Hooker Lake in NZ, you are treated to an equally rewarding view on the return trip. The valley stretches off into the horizon, meeting Lake Pukaki. At only 1.5hrs and on a perfectly groomed trail, this is a hike no one has an excuse not to do.
Hiking in New Zealand really is a treat. Most everyone you meet is just out to enjoy the day and see as many sights as they can. The government has done a great job at supporting this culture and almost all tracks are well marked and in amazing shape. The low population on the South Island means that you may only pass a few other people on a whole day of hiking to a truly stunning place, another bonus if you are seeking solitude!
