New Zealand Lake Matheson Walk, Fox Glacier South
The Lake Matheson Walk is a beautiful smaller track around the reflection lakes with beautiful views to two of the highest peaks of New Zealand: Mount Tasman and Mount Cook.
Especially in the morning it is quiet and peaceful, during the day it is touristic and super crowded.
