What people say

Stephen Jiroch
"This hike is BEAUTIFUL and is famous for its mirror-like reflections of Aoraki/Mount Cook and Mount Tasman on a clear day. The walk around the lake is gentle and takes about 1.5 hours, offering several vantage points for photography and contemplation. We'd recommend doing this hike for sunrise or sunset, depending on your schedule. "

"We chose to do the Lake Matheson Walk because Fox Glacier was covered by clouds on the day we arrived. This is a short 3-mile walk around Lake Matheson. We found it to be very peaceful and loved the glassy, mirrored lake views. Walk details (per AllTrails): - Distance: 2.7 Miles - Elevation: 413 ft - Est. Time 1-1.5 hours"

"Beautiful flat walk around a lake. If you get lucky with good conditions, you will see a beautiful reflection of the mountains!"
