Queenstown, New Zealand


     Queenstown is an exhilarating, year round, alpine resort, perfect for adventurers and leisure seekers alike. Nestled on the shores of Lake Wakatipu, overlooked by the majestic Southern Alps, Queenstown is recognised internationally as New Zealand's premier visitor destination. This resort town boasts a range of activities second to none, all within easy reach of the compact town centre.
Queenstown is sometimes called the action capital of the world and the title is justified when you consider the concentration of adrenalin activities on offer and the fact that some of them originate in New Zealand such as bungee jumping and jet boating. In addition there is parapenting, white water rafting, hiking ,four wheel drive treks, scenic flights,and a host of other activities. Queenstown's most popular pastime however is skiing. There are a number of world class ski fields that operate during the northern hemisphere's summer.

     Queenstown also has a fine range of shops and restaurants as well as an abundance of tour operators and travel agents. It is easy to book any of the exciting adventures on offer here and the surrounding area. One trip that comes highly recommended is a sightseeing flight or drive through nearby Fiordland National Park. The scenery is absolutely stunning in this huge World Heritage area.

     Queenstown is also the world's southernmost wine and cuisine centre and is famous for its Pinot noir which fetches premium prices.
