There are many things to see and do in Queenstown, but visiting the captivating Skyline complex
is definitely a highlight. It is also one of the best places for eating out in Queenstown.
This venue situated high above the town offers many varied delights and is one of the first sights
to catch the attention of the visitor.
The Skyline complex may only be reached via the enthralling gondola which is definitely an
attraction in its own right. The comfortable enclosed cabins travel via a cableway to Bob’s Peak
where the complex is located. The ride is considered to be the steepest such lift in the entire
Southern Hemisphere. Functioning in all weather conditions the gondola ride provides panoramic
views over the surrounding countryside from high above the ground. Additionally after reaching the
complex the visitor will find several observation decks which provide enthralling vistas over
Queenstown, the Remarkables, Coronet Peak and Lake Wakatipu. Not to be missed is the exhilarating
Skyline Luge, a thrilling downhill ride on the specially designed luge carts.
Visitors can replenish their energies at the superb Skyline Restaurant, which is renowned for
serving up truly sumptuous, typically New Zealand style buffets. Customary specialties include
fresh seafood, South Island salmon, roast meats, salads and delectable desserts. The specially
designed tiered seating ensures that all guests will enjoy breathtaking views over the surrounding
landscapes. An ideal venue for a special outing, the restaurant is the best location in Queenstown
to watch the sunset. Regular live entertainment is a special feature of the restaurant. For a
refreshing pre-dinner drink, weary travellers can visit the attractive Skyline Bar.
