NZ - MOUNT ISOBEL WATERFALL

the drive to Hanmer Springs is beautiful and the sun again is shining…..we get into town at a decent time and decide to hike up to Mount Isobel waterfall….the literature says that this is a walk but it turns out to be a pretty steep climb of about 1000 meters……the waterfall is a welcome sight and we take advantage of the cool water….we are 200 meters short of the summit of Mount Isobel but feeling a little lazy so we head back down into town to check in and find dinner…..Hanmer Springs is crazy beautiful and crazy expensive so we take advantage of our kitchens once again and make a healthy affordable meal….the barbecue at the park is great….tomorrow we head into the hot springs for a day of total relaxation…..

smaller falls about 2/3 of the way up the trail....



when we arrive, the sun is sitting in the opening at the top of the falls.........



the 3 little maids stand by the falls and wave.......



how about standing under the fall and washing??



you mean like this??



no, I was thinking more like this......



Wow!....that is cool!!



I wanna try that.......



feels good....




what a beautiful place!!



cool those feet before the hike down....
