Most iconic track - Roy’s Peak New Zealand

One of the most famous Instagram locations in New Zealand is Roys Peak overlooking Lake Wanaka with awe-inspiring views of Mount Aspiring and other peaks of the central South Island. Getting to the peak is a picturesque hike through alpine meadows and tussocks grasslands The Roys Peak Track is one of the many hiking trails of Wanaka that one shouldn't miss while in New Zealand. Wanaka is also one of the chief skiing locations of the Southern Hemisphere (and a chance to escape the heat of summer of the Northern Hemisphere).#2023travelwish #awesomepic

Challenging & Rewarding

One of the most famous Instagrammable places in South Island, New Zealand. The paths are pretty well maintained and the view on the way up is stunning. Great challenging but rewarding hike, magnificent 360 panorama views from the summit! Would recommend trying this peak if you are reasonably fit. #spooktaculartrip #tripblazers #awesomepic #fallingforfall #couplestrip #urbanexplorer #bucketlistreboot #newzealand #newzealandtravel #mountain

The Most Instagram Worthy Peak in NZ!

Roys Peak, located near Wanaka is rated as one of the best hikes in New Zealand. It has one of the most Instagram worthy views at the peak and after I saw countless photos on Instagram, I knew I had to do this hike! The whole hike took me almost 8 hours to complete and I would rate it as quite a difficult hike. The journey up was long, monotonous and always at a constant incline. But I assure you when you reach the top, the stunning views will make everything worthwhile! I reached the peak in time for sunset and managed to capture an Instagram worthy photo of the golden sun rays shining on the peak. If you are planning to hike till night, be sure to bring along a flashlight as the road down will be in complete darkness. #momentssg #hiking #unforgettableexperiences #scenicspotguide
