Lake Ruataniwha in Twizel

The lake is not very famous, but I personally think it's incredibly beautiful. It's known for a salmon farm nearby. I came here because I wanted to hike Mount Cook, and the accommodation here is quite close. It's so pleasant to take a walk by the lake in the afternoon and evening, with people fishing by the lake and others playing with speedboats on the water, quiet and comfortable. The color of the lake water is an indescribable blue-green, and it's especially clean.
