About Queenstown, New Zealand
The Adventure Capital of the Southern Hemisphere, Queenstown, New Zealand is surrounded by
six fabulous skiing areas offering visitors breathtaking ski and snowboarding experiences. There
are six ski fields - Coronet Peak, Cardrona, The Remarkables, Snow Park, Treble Cone, and Waiorau
Snow Farm. Around Queenstown, Olympic ski and snowboard teams are quite a common sight.
Winter in Queenstown is kicked off every year with ten exhilarating days of non-stop festival
action at the Lindauer Queenstown Winter Festival. But snow and skiing is not all what Queenstown
is about. Visitors here can occupy themselves by taking a stroll through beautiful walking trails,
take a hair-raising Bungy jump, skydive, climb mountains, cycle, ride horses, kayak, fish and even
hang-glide! Plus enjoy jet boating with Shotover and Kawarau Jet, parasailing, paraponting,
4X4 adventures, salining on the NZ14 or a relaxing visit to one of the Central Otago Vineyards.
Golfing is yet another crowd-puller to the area, and one of the most popular Queenstown
attractions is the Millbrook where golfers can pamper themselves in the lap of luxury right on the
course. The Kelvin Heights and Arrowtown are the most popular golf courses in Queenstown while the
Frankton and Glenorchy course feature a 9-hole practice range.
Downtown Queenstown is a ‘happening’ shopping area where everything from designer labels to New
Zealand’s popular brands of clothing and goods are on show. A host of restaurants and bars, award
winning vineyards and day spas all add on to the ‘to-do’ list in Queenstown.
