Aoraki / Mount Cook
For lack of a good place to stop between Twizel and Tekapo we decided to do it in one day—57k from our hobbit house in Twizel to the campground in Tekapo. The first thirty kilometers were pleasant enough, the next ten were ok, the next ten were tiresome, and the last seven were really not nice at all. To make a long story short, we wouldn’t do it again. New Zealand’s highest mountain, viewed from Lake Pukaki.
