Site of the historic 'Church of the Good Shepherd', Lake Tekapo was one of the first settlements in the vast Mackenzie basin; a high country plain situated at the foot of the Southern Alps - New Zealand's largest mountain range.

The Mackenzie basin was named for the infamous sheep rustler who roamed the high country sheep stations with his faithful dog.

A statue recognising the contribution of the working sheep dog in the Mackenzie, stands near the church on the shores of Lake Tekapo.
