Lake Tekapo: Turquoise Water Views & Midnight Stargazing Spots

4.7 (1881)

Skip the Church of the Good Shepherd midday crush; everyone fights for the same photo. Head straight to the Mt John Summit trail for a legit aerial view of that neon water. Visit after 3pm to catch the best light. Stay for the night, because the Dark Sky Reserve stargazing is actually wild. Grab the one-way tour from Christchurch if you hate driving. Bring a heavy jacket and prepare to freeze for the night sky.
