A glacial corrie lake in the cliffs beside the Conor Pass road.
Pedlar’s Lake sits in a rocky corrie just below the summit of the Conor Pass, a short scramble up from the waterfall car park on the Brandon Bay side of the pass. Ice-scooped cliffs wrap around dark clear water, with views back down the valley to Brandon Bay and the north coast. The climb takes ten minutes and rewards like a mountain summit; on a warm day the brave swim in water that never really warms up.
