About this place

This easy, short walking track is suitable for all ages, wandering from the Milford Road through forest to peaceful Lake Mistletoe.

The route

This walking track leads you through forest to a peaceful lake that is home to New Zealand scaup (duck), frogs and other wetland wildlife. The track then gently meanders onwards to loop back to the carpark. Views of Lake Te Anau can be seen along the way.
