オタゴのおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

Isthmus peakへのハイキング中に非常に便利なトイレがあります。あまり臭くありません。2026年3月25日にはトイレットペーパーはありませんでした。

Along the way you will encounter sheep, quails and rabbits.

Closed annually from October 1st to November 10th due to lambing.

Start your hike as early as you can - on a fine day the summit can get pretty crowded in the late morning/early afternoon.

Incredible view of Lake Wanaka

Unfortunately, the bridges are currently unusable! To get to the back pool (the blue one), you have to cross the stream. With a swimsuit (which I unfortunately didn't have with me today), it's no problem at all given the moderate water level!

sturdy shoes

I would definitely recommend setting off around 2-3 hours (depending on your fitness and running speed) before sunrise. Headlamps are very helpful here. The climb is not an easy walk, but it is really worth it. In contrast to Roys Peak, you can see not only Lake Wanaka but also Lake Hāwea (over which the sun then rises). The climb is magical even at night (perhaps even better than during the day). If the visibility is clear, you will see the Milky Way as clearly and brightly as rarely anywhere else in the world. Clearly recommended over Roys Peak. Anyone looking for a real experience and not just an Instagram picture will be very happy here.
