What you can expect
Discover the breathtaking beauty of Lake Marian on this guided day walk, perfect for families and couples seeking adventure and tranquillity. Your journey begins with a scenic drive along the iconic Milford Road, complete with photo stops in Fiordland National Park. The hike starts with an easy stroll past cascading waterfalls before ascending through lush native forests of fuchsia, ribbonwood, and beech trees. Along the way, enjoy a delicious morning tea with freshly baked treats in a picturesque setting.
After approximately 5 hours of walking, you’ll reach the stunning alpine lake, nestled in a hanging valley and surrounded by towering mountains. Take in the serenity, capture incredible photos, and immerse yourself in the magic of this hidden gem. If weather conditions limit time at the lake, your guide will lead you on equally spectacular short walks in the Hollyford Valley. A truly unforgettable day exploring Fiordland’s natural wonders!
