University of Canterbury Mt John Observatory

#newzealandtrip At the top of the hill, you get amazing 360 views of the surrounding region such as Lake Tekapo and Lake Alexandrina. The lakes were as blue as the sky. There is a $8 charge to drive up the private road to the top. I would advise to come early as it is a single lane and could be packed at times. You can also find a little cafe where you can grab a coffee or food while enjoying the stunning scenery. I would reccomend anyone to drive up just for the breathtaking views. Next time, it would be amazing to visit at night for stargazing.
