Wānaka’s Best-Kept Secret Walk

If you're looking to escape the crowds and enjoy a more peaceful side of Wānaka, the walk to Glendhu Bay is an absolute must. I stumbled upon this trail almost by accident, and it turned out to be one of the most beautiful and calming experiences of my trip. The path winds gently along the lake’s edge, offering uninterrupted views of the mountains and the sparkling water. Unlike the packed spots like #thatwanakatree, this walk feels like your own private slice of nature. I barely saw anyone else the whole way. I loved that I could take my time—stop to take photos, sit and breathe in the view, or just walk and let my mind wander. There's no set destination or pressure to finish—it’s just you, the lake, and the landscape. I turned around whenever I felt ready, feeling completely refreshed. If you're someone who loves quiet, scenic places and meaningful moments in nature, this hidden gem will stay with you long after you leave. I couldn’t recommend it more.
