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!

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.

As of March 2025, the Blue Pools are inaccessible because an important bridge is under repair.

You don't necessarily have to start in Queenstown. We started in Fernhill and found it very nice. You sometimes have to watch out for mountain bikers

unofficial trail, about 2 minutes up the slope with a beautiful view

A really beautiful but still strenuous hike that should not be underestimated. It is a 7 km continuous steep climb, you should start early if the weather is good. There are no shady passages on the way up and the sun really burns down on your head 😅 but the view on the way up is fantastic. The view once you have fought your way up is of course sensational. It is definitely worth it 👍🏻

The view is hardly a view anymore because the fir trees have grown tall. But it is a nice sunny spot for a break.

We had great weather, so it's especially advisable to set off early because there is no shade on the trail.

Not quite the summit. It is about 200m higher and 30 minutes away. The entire tour can be completed in 4 hours if you are fit.

Amazing view to layers of mountains.

Closed from October 1st to November 10th each year for lambing.

Public toilet along the track.

A brief foretaste of the fantastic view that is still to come.

There is an incredibly beautiful view from the ridge. If you want to hike the entire ridge, you absolutely need to be sure-footed and not afraid of heights. The path is tough. If you just want to see the view from the first spot, it is quite possible for most people to walk.

Worth a stop for the vista over Lake Wanaka!
