Alps to Ocean - day 3

Day 3 - Tekapo to Lake Ohau

103 km, 9.5 hrs

This was our longest day, covering the sections from Tekapo to Twizel (54 km) and Twizel to Lake Ohau (38 km). From Tekapo to Twizel the trail runs next to a hydro canal and then around the shore of Lake Pukaki, before traversing through pine forest and across the downs to Twizel. We stopped for an icecream and then continued - again following hydro canals and finally a dedicated trail around the lake to the lodge.
