Roys Peak Hike
Big climb near Wanaka for 'that selfie' (6hrs)
Instagram has made Roys Peak a worldwide star and many make the climb just to take ‘that selfie’. The gruelling climb to the peak at 1578m is 1220 vertical metres from the carpark, though that ‘selfie spot’ is about three-quarters of the way up.
Prep
Be well prepared with warm gear, especially if the weather is looking dodgy. Take plenty of liquids and drop in to the DoC Wanaka Visitor Centre for track updates.
