About the area
The Queenstown area has some of New Zealand’s most spectacular scenery and natural features. The region also has a rich history of both gold mining and settlement. Several walks follow goldfield trails that enable you to explore and enjoy the outstanding scenery at the same time.
Description
Climb steeply through Pittosporum shrubland before reaching this high country lake, home to brown trout. You can link with the Mt Crichton Loop Track from the lake’s southern end.
