Mirror Lakes

Mirror Lakes, located in the Mavora Lakes Conservation Park near Southland, New Zealand, are two connected lakes with incredibly clear water that allows for breathtaking reflections in the surface. The depth of the water and light winds create beautiful reflections in the calm waters, offering a stunning visual moment for both travelers and photographers alike. Kayakers and canoeing enthusiasts can take advantage of the calm waters to explore the area, while birdwatchers should also keep their eyes open, as the park serves as home to many waterfowl and other bird species. Fishing is also popular here, as it is dotted with rainbow and brown trout in the lakes and streams. With the Southern Alps in the background, and several day-hikes in and around the area, the Mirror Lakes are a must-see destination for anyone visiting Southland.
