Queenstown, New Zealand — Overview
Queenstown boldly claims it is the adventure capital of the world. This sublime New Zealand town has the energetic and brash undertones of a young confident city. Better still, it is set amid one of the most beautiful landscapes in the country. This is thanks to Queenstown’s idyllic location on the shores of Lake Wakatipu surrounded by the snow-capped Remarkables and Eyre mountain ranges. Whilst the views may take your breath away, the mind-numbing array of adrenaline-inducing activities on offer in and around Queenstown certainly will. These include bungee jumping, caving, rafting, jet-boating, skiing, sky diving - and that’s just to get you started. In winter, the mountains make Queenstown a key destination for the world's skiers and snowboarders, who visit the slopes by day and take advantage of the town's many bars and clubs by night.
