Queenstown Travel Guide
Queenstown is New Zealand's crowned adventure destination. The soaring mountains and plunging valleys will satiate your appetite for bungee jumping, sky diving, gliding, heliskiing, mountain biking, phew! Just thinking about all of the adrenaline-pumping ultimate experiences in Queenstown leaves us short of breath. If you're not into thrills, Queenstown's spectacular landscape, fantastic wine, luxury lodges and gorgeous private villas will surely capture your attention.
Queenstown offers the buzz and exuberance of a city without the congestion, smog or stress. Located in the southern region Otago on New Zealand's South Island, Queenstown has mild, floral springs, warm sun-filled summers, kaleidoscopic autumns and frosted winters. This seasonal range is perfect for all kinds of outdoor activities, indeed sometimes it feels like Queenstown was created just for travelers who love the outdoors.
Scenic highlights include Lake Wakatipu, a meandering lake fringed by the Southern Alps. Queenstown sits on the lake's northern shore, offering fabulous views of the lake and mountains beyond. Rising sharply from the southeastern lake shore are the Remarkables, an aptly named mountain range that provides incredible ski and boarding runs and a gorgeous backdrop from Queentown. Other popular sites include local wineries featuring premium New Zealand wines and tours of locations from the Lord of the Rings film trilogy.
Night owls can dance the night away in one of hundreds of Queenstown bars and clubs that stay open until the sunrises over the Remarkables. Most places are filled every night of the week with mixtures of locals and travelers soaking up all that Queenstown has to offer.
