Lakeshore, Forest & Bird
(1/2 day walk)
The 'Lakeshore Forest & Bird' guided walk is a unique nature interpretative experience taken at a leisurely pace through native beech forest, with morning or afternoon tea/coffee on the lakeshore to the sounds of native birdcalls and surrounded by majestic mountains.
The track is good but uneven and winds around the lakeshore with the option of a steeper climb to a lookout with magnificent views in all directions.
This half-day guided walk is most suited to a morning departure and is our easiest walk. It combines the best of native flora and fauna with magnificent lake and mountain views. Native birds are readily seen and heard, in and around the edges of the forest.
