Unnamed Road, Twizel-Lake Tekapo, Mackenzie
The scenic reserve is at the head of the glacial lake. The lake is impounded behind the moraine of the Tekapo ice advance.
A number of bird species use the lake including the southern crested grebe and the NZ scaup. Lake Alexandrina is depicted in a painting by Esther Hope in the Aigantighe Gallery in Timaru.
A winter trout fishing season is usually bountiful. There are huts up here and a gravel road in.
