Day 8 – riding up to the head of Lake Pukaki, near Mt Cook

Today was supposed to be a rest day at the lovely Braemar Station, but we dioecious to cruise up to the lake head as it looked like a nice scenic cycle path. We are now on the official Alps to Ocean trail, and it is well marked in the whole and we are seeing alot more cyclists. It might get busy! The clouds didn’t lift off the top of my cook salt but it was a stunning day, and ended up being about a 50 km ride.
