Try to visit late morning or late afternoon when you don't have to compete with the masses of people coming off the tour buses. Beautiful scenery but the weed in the lake is starting to get closer to the sign. Only a short stop but worth it

This stop was a big let down. The "walk" is only two minutes long. The lakes are right next to the road, not very peaceful and we've seen a handful of lakes with way more impressive reflections than this one throughout our NZ trip.

Nice short walk along the Mirror Lakes. Very nice to see the reflection of the mountains in the lakes.

Beautiful to see the mountains in the 'mirror' of the lake. We spent 30 minutes there.

Good information signs.

A short walk to stretch your legs, worth a visit to take a couple of pictures by the driftwood letters. But it is not the kind of beach to take a swim or sunbathe, plus it is windy.

Peaceful stop on this spot for taking a break. The water was quiet and mountains mirrored there.

Short walk and very easy. On a sunny day I suppose you could see the mirror, but it was raining and it was impossible to see any reflection into the small lakes.

Neat walk in Fiordland. Has to be a clear, calm day to get a good reflection in the water. Worth stopping for. Big tourist spot so time it well.

Wonderful views over the mountains and valleys. The reflections of the mountain range and peaks in the Mirror Lakes were exceptional.

You drive through the woods, mountains, next to beautiful lakes - the Homer Tunnel was very scary.

Awesome - one of my favourite places. Really lucky as the weather was perfect and I could see perfectly the mirror effect!

Stop here if you need to stretch your legs. Small mirror lake area, nothing special after our visit to Lake Matheson.

Only a 5 minute walk, disappointing without the sun.

Not to be missed. An incredible site. Best to go early morning/late evening to avoid the tourist buses. Plenty of viewing area.

Exploring all the marked attractions - such as Mirror Lakees, chasm etc en route to Milford - and then of course the tunnel just before Milford.

Pathetic pond, not very mirrored, only 2 mins from carpark but not worth the stop!
