An approximately 12km long track, it leads over 3 suspension bridges to Hooker Lake, where you can see the Mount Cook in good weather. Attention! In bad weather the track is often blocked.

The relatively easy track leads from Mt Cook Village, up the Hooker Valley and along the Hooker River, ending at the glacier lake. Excellent views of Aoraki/Mount Cook throughout the trek.

The way to the glacier is worthwhile due to the wonderful landscape
