Message from Hayley Andersen
Peter's Lookout is a must-stop spot on the road to Mount Cook, offering epic views of Aoraki (Mount Cook) and Lake Pukaki. Located about 13 km down Mt Cook Road, it's the perfect place to snap those iconic New Zealand road trip photos. Just pull over, soak in the stunning scenery, and don't forget to capture the moment! And hey, if you're lucky, you might even catch a glimpse of some fluffy clouds dancing around the majestic mountain.
