Lake Wannaka region, north of Queenstown.  Maybe the best day hike I have ever done… 3,900ft vertical ascent, but can’t beat the views.

This amazing circuit is located in the south island fjordlands, just south of the Milford Sound.

Lake Te Anau

The long slog up!

Big guy just decided to plop down while I was eating lunch… then he tried to steal my lunch!
