Beautiful views over the gorge. Known for its vivid turquoise waters, the gorge is surrounded by lush native bush and dramatic rock formations. The striking water color is caused by glacial flour—fine sediment from nearby glaciers—suspended in the river, reflecting sunlight. Visitors can explore the area via scenic walking tracks, including suspension bridges offering breathtaking views. Open year-round. If it’s not busy you can cycle the path up to the bridge.
