[2025 Dingle Burn Attraction] Travel Guide for Lake Hawea (Updated Jul)

#5月好去处2025 Nini and Tomy visited Lake Hawea in the South Island on the 4th day of their honeymoon in New Zealand. They were deeply shocked by the jewel-like blue water and magnificent mountain scenery. Lake Hawea is located in Aspiring National Park. The lake is wide and picturesque. It is a secret place that cannot be missed on the way to Lake Wanaka. The author described the blue of the lake as the sea, making people feel like they are in a postcard or a dream. Such beautiful scenery is hard to see in Taiwan. It is strongly recommended to go there in person to experience the pure natural beauty. This stop became the most unforgettable beautiful scenery of their entire journey.

#summervacay Lake Hawea, often overshadowed by nearby Wanaka, is a stunning, peaceful lake surrounded by towering mountains and less development. In summer, it’s perfect for water activities like boating, paddleboarding, and swimming in clear, cool water. The lakefront is ideal for picnicking, fishing, and stargazing. With scenic drives, freedom camping options, and hiking trails like Isthmus Peak nearby, it’s a haven for those wanting a more off-the-beaten-track summer experience. Lake Hawea offers the raw beauty of the Southern Lakes with fewer people and more tranquility.

Compared with the great fame of Lake Wanaka, Lake Hawea seems so obscure, and the tourists by the lake are twos and threes. We can quietly watch a good sunset in the huge cinema in this world. Behind the top of the mountain, the sunset glows like a pink marshmallow. This time I have a house like a castle in the small town of Lake Hawea. It is very close to the lake, the living area is spring, and the pink cherry blossoms bloom. Compared to Wanaka's excitement, it is a lot quieter here. In the morning, the landlord prepared breakfast. The weather was fine, the sun was shining on the table, and we looked at the snowy mountains outside the window. In comparison, Wanaka is really a lot of people, and here is a pure world, which makes people want to be happy.
