We drove along Lake Wakatipu for a ways on the way to Milford Sound and back. The color of the water was spectacular, these pics do not do it justice.

They sell more than just the one ring, all kinds of LoTR merchandise. Amusing that they sell the ring (for almost NZ $200 I think), but use a cheap print out pasted in the window to advertise it.

Despite the white water rapids, they take a picture at a place where the water carries you through without requiring much effort from anyone other than the guide.
