Lake Tekapo Village in Autumn 4K April 2021 | New Zealand Walking Tour 4K | New Zealand Virtual Tour

Lake Tekapo is about three hours drive south-west of Christchurch in the Mackenzie Basin. The township faces north across the remarkable turquoise coloured lake to the mountainous drama of the Southern Alps. Lake Tekapo gets its intense milky-turquoise colour from the fine rock-flour (ground by glaciers) which is suspended in the water. Take an Autumn walk along the lakeside and enjoy the colourful foliage and water, this place is truly a relaxed heaven.

Lupin flowers in Lake Tekapo are one of the prettiest and most sought after times of the year to visit The Mackenzie Country. In fact some of the most seen images of New Zealand often include landscapes with immense varieties of deep purples, pinks, yellows and soft violets across snow covered peaks and emerald blue lakes. Lupin flowers are in full bloom in The Mackenzie Country’s mid spring to early summer in the month from November to early December in the Southern Hemisphere. However, Lupins are not native to New Zealand – in fact, they're classified as an invasive species.
