Got Hooked!
Blessed with good weather during our 3hr hike surrounded by beautiful and majestic valleys at Hooker Valley Track.
Overcame 3 swing bridges and reached the end of the track, welcomed by a breathtaking lake view! The place is a great place for hikers to take a break, refuel themselves for the hike back.
Hiking has never been the same.

time to put you hiking boots on
Traveling in New Zealand sometimes feel a bit unreal. when you go to Mount cook it’s feel so u real that you need pinch your self !!!
The Hooker Vally track is a 3hour walk , 1,5h one way.
The walk is so beautiful, you will pass 3 swing bridges on the way. if you are scared of heights - DONT LOOK DOWN!!
make sure to brings a wind jacket because the weather can change FAST. you might start the walk with sun but the last part of the walk the wind can change fast and it’s might come some rain!
no matter what make sure to visit Mt Cook!

Hooker Valley Tracking Is For Everyone!
The Hooker Valley Track is within Mount Cook National park on New Zealand's South Island.
The track leads up the Hooker Valley and along the Hooker River, passing through 3 swing bridges, surrounded by snow capped mountains, ending at the glacier lake, where there are amazing views of Aoraki/Mount Cook if you are lucky. (when the sky is clear)

Wonderful Sight!
Absolutely breathtaking stunning! If you're a nature lover, this is perfect for you. Good for beginners and experienced outdoorsman as the walking track is flat most of the time and the reward at the end was wonderful with many icebergs floating in the Hooker Lake, a glacial lake. Thoroughly recommended.

Tasman Track
Just a 5-minute drive from Hooker Valley, you'll reach this very short track. The endpoint is a glacial lake, greyish in color. It's essentially surrounded by mountains on all sides. You can climb the mountain on the left to get a better view of the Tasman Glacier, and it seems possible to walk along the ridge to the spot where you can see the Blue Lake. There are no signs, and I didn't dare to go by myself, but two young people went there. This path is very easy, and there were many people taking speedboats on the glacial lake, heading somewhere unknown, probably a group activity.

A must go place in NZ - Mount Cook
This is absolutely amazing and wonderful!!!
The view is superb. We spend 4 hours for the hiking in Hooker Valley Track.
There is free car parking nearby.
And it is super windy and cold in the early morning. So, make sure to bring a windbreaker to keep yourself warm.
And also make sure wear a fit sport shoes for hiking.
You may bring along some snack incase you need energy when hiking.!!!

An arduous hike…..WORTH IT! 😍
Not really arduous, but just arduous for an unfit person like me. But the weather and views make it all so worth it! Recommend to go in winter and do bring some snacks or sandwiches to eat after the hike as there are a couple of picnic locations. Instagrammable, but photos cannot do this place justice. A must visit when you’re in Queenstown NZ!

The Hooker Valley Track is the most popular short walking track within the Aoraki / Mount Cook National Park in New Zealand. At only 5 kilometres length and gaining only about 100 m in height, the well formed track can be walked by tourists with a wide range of level of fitness.
