There's nothing better than a bit of mid-winter camping, and there is no better place to camp than at Lake Pearson. This high country lake in the Waimakariri Basin offers spectacular views, a bit of bird watching and fishing. Make sure you bundle up warm though!

There are many campsites along Arthur’s Pass, and Lake Pearson is one among a bunch that are all spectacular. This particular spot has any number of sites lining a small lake that you can pitch your tent next to, with improvised fires from previous campers you can use and fend your snacks off from families of ducks.
