On the way from Wanaka we made a few stops. 1) Lake Dunstan, which is a man-made lake near the town of Cromwell. The lake was formed on the Clutha River as a result of the construction of the Clyde Dam, parts of the town of …

    Beautiful setting on Lake Waktipu. Rooms are nothing but you should only be in them to sleep anyway, The y are big and that makes it easier to share the dorms. Bathrooms large as well. Everything spotless. The kitchen, lounges, amenties are fantastic.

    Awesome views, not that far from town but a very cold walk in July. Kitchen large but crowded, rooms ok, showers ok. Price around $25 with YHA card.

    Nice hostel, but too big to be social

    Way too big to be social, but a nice place to stay. Looks a way out of town but it only takes 10-15 minutes to stroll (and I mean stroll, only takes 5 minutes to power walk) into town. Only has 5 or 6 parking spaces but free parking available on the road.
