The adventure capital of the world
Queenstown sits on the shore of Lake Wakatipu, ringed by mountains and packed with ways to get your heart racing. The world's first commercial bungy site is a short drive away at the Kawarau Bridge, jet boats roar through narrow canyons, and in winter the ski fields are close by. When you need a rest, the wineries of Central Otago and the gold-rush town of Arrowtown are nearby.
