New Zealand Unnamed Glacial Lake (Godley Hut)

The glacial lakes surrounding Godley Hut are fed by snowmelt and glaciers flowing from the Southern Alps, creating striking turquoise waters against a backdrop of rugged mountains and braided river valleys. These remote alpine lakes offer exceptional opportunities for hiking, photography, and experiencing the untouched wilderness of New Zealand's Mackenzie Country.

If you shoot a person of interest, make sure to contrast in colors. It's not easy to find many other colors here in this rugged terrain, so pop-out with some more flashy.

Getting here is not easy. There is no road leading there and you need to cross several rivers with a 4x4 car or hike all the way in. It took us 7 hours of off-road driving and then another 1,5 hours of hiking. Access is generally via Lilybank Road at the end of Lake Tekapo. If the river levels are too high, please turn around and dont get yourself in danger.
