The Lake Matheson Track is a well maintained short walk that surrounds the lake offering amazing views at each of the three viewpoints available. The full walking track takes approximately 40 minutes as it meanders through native bush and streams. The track begins just past the Lake Matheson cafe and Visitor Centre and is a relatively easy walk with just a few inclines along the way.

Not far past the Reflection Island viewpoint on the right hand side of the track you will reach the steps that lead to the View of Views lookout. This is a beautiful elevated view of the lake and mountains and my second favourite photography spot along the track.

Photography info: Bring both your wide angle lens and your zoom lens for this one, and see if you can arrive during golden hours at sunrise and sunset
