Easy hike, times given by the DOC are far too high. Can easily be made in two H.

December 6, 2025,Teilstück Routeburn - Track ➡️ Aussichtspunkt Key Summit 🏔

A typical Fjordland rainforest with beautiful plays of light and shadow and trees covered in lichen, but a very rocky path.

The most beautiful part is the Enchanted Forest 🧙‍♀️🌳 on the circular trail by the lake.

Did the walk with two kids age 8 and 10. If you want to make it shorter you can remove the loop to the lake (-30mins)
