Pukaki Lookout

Aoraki Mount Cook National Park, New Zealand

The Pukaki Lookout offers breathtaking vistas of New Zealand's Aoraki Mount Cook, the highest peak in the country. On clear days, its snow-capped summit reflects in the strikingly turquoise waters of Lake Pukaki, which owes its color to glacial flour suspended in the water.
