Beautiful alpine lake with a popular 2 hour loop track. If you don't want to do the whole walk it's still worth a drive by and casual stroll!

Please keep in mind that the lake is accessed by a gravel road and its recommended you have a 4WD in winter.

Further information: Moke Lake is a stunning hidden gem close to Queenstown and a peaceful escape from the hustle and bustle of city life. Moke Lake offers visitors an array of activities, from hiking around the lake and up secret viewpoints that provide stunning views, to kayaking, canoeing, fishing and mountain biking. Stargazing at night is also particularly inviting, as on clear nights the stars in the sky light up the lake and its surrounding mountains. Adding to the lure are camping facilities offered by the Department of Conservation, making it easy and affordable for travelers to stay at this natural wonder and continue to explore all that the area has to offer.
