The entrance to the Cardrona Valley is only minutes from Wanaka, but the area most well known around the iconic Cardrona Hotel is twenty mins. drive away. The shots below are indicative of the beautiful extremes of the seasons. Some perspectives may be thought to be quite unique and difficult of access, but there are a number of walkways and public tracks in the valley.
