A short walk through native beech forest leads to two swing bridges looking down upon crystal clear blue pools. A perfect walk for the kids and a refreshing summer swimming spot. This track is accessed in the Makarora area and is well worth the hours drive.

Hook is a great family activity. Catch your very own Chinook salmon from the spring-fed fishing lakes then relax while they prepare it for you. Meanwhile the kids can feed the fish, explore the beautiful grounds, play a lawn game or hang out in the sand pit.

Just a short drive from Wanaka. Built in 1869 by Harry Maidman, the Luggate Hotel is another iconic watering hole from the gold rush era. A great place to stop for a cold drink, a hearty meal, and a spot of historical reading.
