Walk along the side of the lake, then double back, climbing steadily to the observatory. It's a steepish descent directly back to Tekapo. Brilliant views, quiet, well signposted.

Much cheaper than flight from Mount Cook airport and every bit as spectacular. Often bargain price if you book late afternoon for same day.

Try Google, or do it when you're there
