New Zealand Alex Knob Track, Franz Josef Glacier
Alex Knob Track offers great views on the Franz Josef Glacier and the surrounding mountains. On your first kilometer you hike through a sick green jungle forest with crazy low-hanging moss-covered trees. After you are coming out of the bush line you will get beautiful mountain valley views like this here.
Photography Tips
Carry your camera with you all the time on a capture clip or something different outside on your backpack. On this track are several cool photo possibilities and it makes it way much easier for a quick shot.
