Lake Marian Day Walk

Lake Marian is a beautiful alpine lake held within a “hanging valley”. The lake is just at the bush line and is surrounded by mountains. On a clear day with little wind the reflections are stunning to say the least. We will spend some extra time at the lake and walk around the south side. The views here are amazing with the permanent snow covered Mt Crosscut and the Darren range that seems so close to us.

Your Day:

  • Depart 8:30 am – Return (approx) 4:30 pm from your Te Anau accommodation. (Times can be changed)
  • We begin our journey with a spectacular scenic drive along the Milford Road. Approximately 1 hour into our journey we enter Fiordland National Park which is the largest national park in New Zealand.
  • We stop at some fantastic photo places along the way to the Lower Hollyford Valley.
  • The starting point for the guided walk to Lake Marian is just one kilometre into the Hollyford Valley making our journey from Te Anau 86 kilometres.
  • The hike starts with a gentle walk alongside a spectacular series of waterfalls, then steepens and becomes quite rocky underfoot and sometimes a bit muddy after rain. As we ascend through a lush forest of fuchsia, ribbon wood and beech trees at your pace we make frequent stops and offer information about the fauna and answer any questions that you may have.
  • Bird life can be plentiful and we make time to capture photos of them.
  • We supply a morning tea with home baking and tea coffee etc. We can supply lunch as an optional extra and to be carried by your self.
  • The time spent at Lake Marian will depend on the weather but the return from the Hollyford car park is around 5 hours.
  • If adverse weather shortens our time at Lake Marian we will take you further down the Hollyford Road and explore some amazing short walks and the unique Gunns Camp.
