Lake Pukaki: Stunning Alpine Beauty

Another road trip must-stop, Lake Pukaki! The magnificent lake presents a scene of profound serenity and breathtaking beauty with Mount Cook towering prominently on the left. In clear skies and sunny conditions, the lake looks like it’s glistening, transforming the peaceful landscape into a dazzling sight to behold. 💡 Tip! Get your hands on one of the freshest salmon in town from Mt Cook Alpine Salmon Shop. Located right beside the lake, the shop offers the perfect spot to enjoy a light snack with an uninterrupted view. #explorenewzealand #nzroadtrip #lakepukaki
