Turn off State Highway 8, where there is a sign post for the salmon farm.
This scenic route offering expansive views of the McKenzie Coutry owes its existence to the ambitious hydro-electric scheme which harnesses the snow-derived waters of the MacKenzie Country lakes by using large man-made canals. En-route you will see a Salmon farm. Tekapo B power station which discharges into Lake Pukaki is a short distance from the end of the road.
Tuatara Tours offer guided cycle tour on the Tekapo Canal Trail.
