We set off around 8.30am..it took us around 2 hrs to reach Hanmer Spring.. we were nt going straight to the hot pool...but to explore Conical Hill(Alpine trees)...where u can c the whole Hanmer Spring area when u reached the peak...

Having to walk a lot of zigzag turn..wow..FANTASTIC VIEW!!..Probably u would think that was quite foggy, then can't c any stuff..but u felt u were like in HEAVEN, which clouds or mayb fog surrounding u...
Heaven..lol
In the Heaven..LOL
After a tiring walk...Lunch time!!!..Our package include BBQ lunch..so when we got down from the hill..the lunch was ready..Never did we expect that the lunch was set up near a small pond..v hot dog, beef steak, salad, white wine n eggs served on the picnic table..Though it was a simple lunch, we enjoyed a lot besides having to withstand the coldness...haha..
Small pond v ducklings
Nicely set up
outdoor lunch during winter!!!
Next up...Thermal pool...the pools have a different temperature, ranging from 32-42 degree celsius...the hottest one is Sulfur pool...which hav a strong smell of sulfur..like rotten eggs!!!..but still dipping in hot water during winter, the satisfaction juz undescribable...
Snow at the far mountain
38 degree celsius
On the way bek...the driver stopped us at somewhere..the view was quite scenic..He was telling us that...we can actually do jetboating n bungy jumping here..Hanmer Spring is nt a place just for thermal pool only..
