Day 22: Wanaka to Te Anau

We got up early this morning and the first thing we saw out our window was a gorgeous full moon setting in a brilliant blue sky just above the mountain tops. We ate breakfast, took care of email and left Wanaka about 10:30. It’s not a long drive to Te Anau, so we took our time sightseeing along the way. Purely by accident, we took a “short cut” (which is short in distance only) from Wanaka to Te Anau instead of SH6 as planned. I previously thought that SH2 between Masterton and Wellington was the windiest road I have ever seen, but I think that Crown Range Road between Wanaka and Te Anau might have it beat. The good part was that Crown Range Road is a much better road than SH2 with a lot of scenic overlooks where you can stop and take photos. (And not so many trucks.) SH2 has almost no scenic overlooks or stopping places. Crown Range Road goes through a high mountain pass that is about 4000 ft. above sea level, rises straight up and falls straight down on the other side. On one side, you have lush green forests and lakes and on the other side you have dry, brown grassland interspersed with farms (much like eastern Washington and Oregon).

We reached Te Anau about 3 pm, found ourselves lodging and set about exploring. There is a beautiful park directly across the street on the shore of Lake Te Anau and we hiked over there, found ourselves a nice bench by the lake and chilled. Afterwards, we went out for dinner, found a delightful Italian restaurant and had the best dinner we have ever had in an Italian restaurant. The food, service and ambiance were absolutely perfect. That proved to be a perfect end to a perfect day. As we have to get up early for our tour of Milford Sound tomorrow morning, we’re going to pack it in early.
