It's a short and scenic walk that takes you up to the Tasman Glacier Viewpoint for a beautiful view of the Tasman Lake and of the Tasman Glacier retreating into mountains. It's an easy trail but is a gradual incline with a lot of stairs.
Is Tasman Glacier hike worth it?
It's the best way to see the glaciers and get a view of the land. It's hard to appreciate the bush and the hills without seeing them from above. It's expensive but I'd definitely recommend it.
