The Hokitika Valley was formed by glacier movement hundreds of millions of years ago, where the canyon is deep and the forest vegetation is very lush. There are also many underground rivers flowing through, although it feels more dangerous, but it is also very magnificent, it is worth visiting.

The Hokitika Valley was formed by glacier movement hundreds of millions of years ago, where the canyon is deep and the forest vegetation is very lush. There are also many underground rivers flowing through, although it feels more dangerous, but it is also very magnificent, it is worth visiting.
Hockitika Canyon is a half-hour drive from the town of Hockitika, this attraction is highly recommended. The blue-green lake at Blue Gorge is very beautiful. The driver told us that the suspension bridge can only be ten people at a time, and the people are very shaken. Walk over the suspension bridge and follow the path down to see the ice-blue lake.
A short walk is not very hard, but it will not be very interesting, and the valley is not very steep. Will pass a suspension bridge, more swaying, there is a limit on the number of people crossing the bridge at the same time, and it is more difficult for students with height fear. From the bridge down to see the lake is very beautiful, slippery milk blue, very amazing feeling.
Hokitika Valley is rarely mentioned in other travel notes because it is not on the regular route. But, it is really beautiful. That blue water, like milk with blue pigment, the texture of this lotion stems from the action of glacier powder. The observation deck is very close to the parking lot, and the trail is more than half an hour back and forth. There are not many Chinese tourists, and many foreigners play diving.
Hockettika Canyon (HokitikaGorge) is one of the popular attractions on New Zealand's South Island. From a distance, the green shade is a touch of blue, which has a special flavor. There is a cableway bridge in the Hockettika Canyon, which is very suitable for hiking. You can enjoy the scenery on both sides of the Straits while walking, listening to the sound of running water, very pleasant. Especially suitable for summer travel.
