Travel Guide

amazing clay cliffs between Omarama and Mount Cook - worth the drive off the main road - lots of different colors of clay and the red fruit in the foreground are on the sweet briar rosehip bushes a plant that was introduced to NZ by the settlers
amazing clay cliffs between Omarama and Mount Cook - worth the drive off the main road - lots of different colors of clay and the red fruit in the foreground are on the sweet briar rosehip bushes a plant that was introduced to NZ by the settlers
lots of exploring to be done at the clay cliffs after a quick detour off the main paved road you will take a gravel road along the river to reach the cliffs
a quick detour off the main road will get you right up to the cliffs, we went after some pretty heavy weather so it was good and slippery when we went and we got covered in clay exploring

8.8/10 Excellent! (189 reviews)
Room was huge, comfortable and affordable with free parking. Everything I needed and loved being right beside the lake, whilst also convenient for Mt Cook National Park, Lake Tekapo and restaurants in town. It felt very safe, relaxed and family friendly.

Clearly there had been an unexpected guest who left laundry and blankets on the floor in the bedroom and a couple of glasses on the counter. ...
