Overview

Wānaka is a common stop for those cruising through the South Island's idyllic scenery. Here, you'll find a myriad of fascinating hikes that offer a stunning perspective on the namesake lake.

For instance, the Outlet Track is an easy one-hour stroll starting at Beacon Point and making its way along the Clutha River toward Albert Town.

The Rob Roy Glacier Track is slightly trickier, stretching 10 kilometres through Mount Aspiring National Park.
