LAKE TEKAPO - LAKE PUKAKI<br />
SOUTHERN HOLIDAY DESTINATIONS AUTUMN-WINTER <strong>2024</strong><br />
Lake Tekapo Cottages<br />
Lake Tekapo Cottages offer selfcontained<br />
holiday accommodation in<br />
one of the South Island’s most scenic<br />
settings. Nestled in a large garden<br />
amid mature trees, this selection of<br />
charming cottages of varying size<br />
accommodate between 2 and 8 guests.<br />
Well sited for both mountain views and<br />
privacy, the cottages allow independent<br />
visitors to enjoy a country-style stay<br />
with modern comforts and village<br />
amenities close by. Tekapo has become<br />
a year-round destination with water<br />
sports, hot springs, skating, ski fields,<br />
scenic flights to Mt Cook and a World<br />
Heritage Night Sky attraction at<br />
Mt John.<br />

Home of Freshwater King Salmon<br />
Just outside of Twizel on the fringes<br />
of the Mt Cook National Park lies the<br />
exquisite Lake Pukaki with its turquoise<br />
waters. The main route south meanders<br />
around the edges of its shores and on<br />
a clear day, it’s impossible to drive past<br />
the iconic view of Mt Cook across<br />
the water without stopping.<br />
Here on the shores of Lake Pukaki is<br />
the Mt Cook Alpine Salmon Shop, a<br />
popular pitstop for those travelling<br />
between Christchurch<br />
and Queenstown.<br />
The Mt Cook Alpine Salmon Shop<br />
offers a very special kind of salmon,<br />
one found only in this unique corner<br />
of the world. While King Salmon is a<br />
premium salmon species Kiwis are<br />
spoilt with, Freshwater King Salmon<br />
has a unique taste and texture all of<br />
its own.<br />
These remarkable salmon thrive in<br />
the cold, glacier-fed waters that flow<br />
from the Southern Alps. Swimming<br />
against fast flowing currents keep these<br />
salmon naturally healthy and fit. This<br />
active lifestyle translates into a clean,<br />
subtle taste and delicate texture.<br />
So pause, unwind, and savour the<br />
iconic vistas and the delicious salmon.<br />
There are inviting picnic tables<br />
refreshments and some beautiful<br />
sashimi or smoked salmon to enjoy.<br />
Open 7 days a week (except Christmas<br />
day). www.alpinesalmon.co.nz<br />
