Murchison Lake

Murchison Lake is a secluded lake tucked away in the beautiful Gammack district, in the North Island of New Zealand. The lake is crystal clear and surrounded by lush native forest, making it an ideal spot for fishing, swimming, or simply taking in the peace and quiet. It’s also a popular spot for hikers, as the Laketop Track offers spectacular views, starting from the lake’s edge and snaking up through the forest. Be sure to bring a picnic to enjoy on the grassy banks, or even hire out a boat for a bit of exploration. Locals also head here for camping, kayaking, and even hunting during the high season. It’s an awesome place to check out if you’re in the area.
