I lodged at
Manapouri with a beautiful look at Lale Manapouri. One day I had the idea to
drive to Borland Road and further to the South arm of Lake Manapouri. I’ve some
interesting landscape, but …
While
driving the Borland Road you can enjoy looking at power lines. And when you
reach the Borland Saddle you might even enjoy a great sight, but at the same
time you see a plate with some information on the saddle by the Department of
Conservation.
“Human
impact on this region seems to be slight.” “Forestry and farming have not
touched the landscape …”. No! I disagree. Clearing forest for a width of 50-70
m for power lines can’t be called a trifle.
Apart from
these exciters, I enjoyed looking down from a little less than 1000 m into the
rain forest or walk into one of the nice valleys. Due to road works one could
not drive through to the South arm of
Lake Manapouri.
