New Zealand Hooker Valley, Mount Cook National Park
Hooker Valley offers good views of the mountain ranges in Mount Cook National Park, including Mount Cook itself, and also of the terminal lake of Hooker Glacier. While the glacier is covered with debris, you may be lucky to spot icebergs drifting on the lake.
Photography Tips
The best time is well before or well after noon, as during the middle of the day the sun will be to the North.
