Queenstown and related destinations

Adrenaline junkies find their spiritual home in this lakeside playground where bungee jumping was practically invented. The Skyline Gondola delivers you to panoramic views of Lake Wakatipu and the jagged Remarkables mountain range. Jet boats slice through impossibly narrow canyons while skiers carve nearby slopes in winter. The compact town centre buzzes with cafes and outdoor outfitters surrounding Queenstown Mall. For quieter moments, wander through Queenstown Gardens or spot native birds at the Kiwi and Birdlife Park. The casino offers entertainment without the natural thrills, though locals might suggest you're better off sipping pinot noir at a local winery. Come summer, the beach becomes a perfect launchpad for lake adventures beneath Ben Lomond's watchful peak.
