"Lake Gunn is your next stop along the Milford Highway and is perfect for those seeking out a gorgeous, tranquil experience in nature. The lake itself is completely surrounded by a native beech forest. It’s an especially picturesque setting with the reflections of the surrounding mountains on the lake’s surface creating stunning photo opportunities!
We opted to only stop here for a short photo stop, but if you want to spend some more time here, you can also stretch your legs around the lake! There’s a short and easy nature walk around Lake Gunn. The walk takes about 45 minutes to an hour and allows you to experience the unique Fiordland ecosystem."
