Twizel & Mount Cook
Gibbston Valley Winnery
Today we are heading for Mount Cook at Mckenzie via Twizel. Along the road from Queenstown we stop at Gibbston Valley Winnery to see the grape farm and his outlet. We bought two botlle pineaple wine for each of our parrent.
Lake Pukaki
Continue the road, after arrive at Twizel and take intersection to Mount Cook Road we drive along the Lake Pukaki, this lake is the largest from the others there (Lake Oahu and Lake Tekapo). The blue colour i think its because the glacial. We stop a moment at here.
Mount Cook
Mount Cook is the highest mountain in New Zealand, 3.754 metres. We take a walk course here, not sure how long the path but certainly make my heart breath quickly because the terrain doesn’t always flat. Luckily the weather is friendly, no sun shine and cool temperature.
