Landscape in Canyonlands National Park, Utah, USA

Canyonlands National Park is a U.S. National Park located in southeastern Utah near the town of Moab. It preserves a colorful landscape eroded into countless canyons, mesas, and buttes by the Colorado River, the Green River, and their respective tributaries. The park is divided into four districts the Island in the Sky, the Needles, the Maze, and the combined rivers-the Green and Colorado-which carved two large canyons into the Colorado Plateau. While these areas share a primitive desert atmosphere, each retains its own character. Canyonlands is a popular recreational destination. Since 2007, more than 400, 000 people have visited the park each year with a record of 634, 607 visitors in 2015.Mammals that roam this park include black bears, coyotes, skunks, bats, elk, foxes, bobcats, badgers, two species of ring-tailed cats, pronghorns, and cougars

Lake Matheson, New Zealand

Lake Matheson is a very short drive, 10 minutes, from Fox Glacier. It is a traditional Maori people gathering location to enjoy the sharing of food. There is a walking circuit around the lake, taking about one hour, with walkways and viewing platforms to enjoy the reflections and numerous birdlife. The visitors centre features an award winning cafe / restaurant. Even when the cloud is down and mountain activities are curtailed this location is a great place to spend some time and enjoy the landscape at low level
