Mt Cook bike & hike

March 11, 2023

We left Lake Tekapo this morning and rode to Mt Cook village via the Alps 2 Ocean trail. Again I saw things that I have seen before but it never gets old and the perspective is different from the trail versus the road. Once we reached Mt Cook village we had lunch followed by a short (kiwi short and easy) hike. We had great views of Mt Cook and Lake Tasman with multiple icebergs that have chipped off the Tasman glacier.

A painting of Sir Edmund Hillary and his guide Tenzing in the museum.

A beautiful stained glass window in the information centre.

The stairs we hiked to get the view of the lake.

Today's ride: 25 km (16 miles)
Total: 445 km (276 miles)
