Another day break with a trip to Mount John at night.
When the high fog lifted, we decided to stay another day in Lake Tekapo. In the morning we made another trip to the hot pools.
Since the skies were now clear, we were finally able to make a nighttime trip to Mount John and stargaze from there. Since Mount John is located in a relatively remote area without "light pollution", several telescopes have been built there, which are used for research among other things.
As a tourist you have the possibility to take part in a guided tour. You can see stars, planets and galaxies with the naked eye or with telescopes. Or simply enjoy the impressive starry sky.
