This day trip takes you by shuttle from Lake Tekapo to Aoraki/Mount Cook National Park, where you can hike at your own pace. You can walk both of the popular Hooker Valley Track and Tasman Glacier View Track in one day. On the way, stop at Peter's Lookout to view Lake Pukaki, Mount Cook and the Southern Alps, and on the way back, stop at Lake Pukaki for photos. The English-speaking driver recommends the best track for the day, and the hikes are self-guided so you can explore freely.
Program
Take the shuttle from Tekapo
to Mount Cook National Park
Depart in the morning from the Four Square Tekapo supermarket car park. On the way, stop at Peter's Lookout to take in and photograph Lake Pukaki, Aoraki/Mount Cook and the Southern Alps. You then arrive at The Hermitage Hotel in Mount Cook Village; if you don't want to hike, you can get off here and rejoin at 3 PM.
Look down on the glacier lake from the Tasman Glacier View Track
Choose to walk either the Tasman Glacier View Track or the Tasman River Track. The driver will recommend the best track for the day. The Tasman Glacier View Track has about 300 steps and overlooks the Tasman Glacier and Tasman Lake. The Tasman River Track is an easier walk, and sometimes you can spot icebergs floating on the lake.
Walk between glaciers and snowy peaks on the Hooker Valley Track
Walk freely along the Hooker Valley Track, surrounded by glaciers and mountains. The return walk takes about 3 hours on average. After the hike, take the free shuttle that runs every 30 minutes between 13:00 and 14:30 from the Hooker Valley car park to Mount Cook Village, and enjoy free time until departure.
Stop at Lake Pukaki and return to Tekapo
Regroup in front of The Hermitage Hotel at 3 PM and depart. Around 4 PM, make a short stop at Lake Pukaki for photos and a visit to the Alpine Salmon Shop, then return to Tekapo village around 5 PM.
