Random Hike

Carholm Lake
Also known as 'Matiere Lake', it was formed by a massive landslide in 1997, and has now settled into a beautiful, deep lake. It is possible to walk down to the lake, but is still considered an unstable area and caution must be exercised expecially if one does walk down.For many the view from the road above is the best. Reached after a 20 minute drive along a difficult road off the main Layou River road.
