The Queenstown Lifestyle
Four Seasons
In Summer, long hot days offer plenty of time for outdoor adventures.
- Hiking, fishing, golfing, sailing, mountain biking, tennis, hang gliding or parapenting – the list of activities is endless.
- To unwind, simply relax overlooking the lake or visit one of the local spa retreats for a revitalising aromatherapy massage.
Autumn or Fall, enjoy the rich autumnal colours of tree-lined boulevards in nearby Arrowtown, Glenorchy and Wanaka.
- Take a scenic flight to nearby Milford Sound with its majestic Mitre Peak.
- In Central Otago, winemakers are harvesting succulent grapes in preparation for award-winning vintages.
Wintertime in Queenstown has a magic all of its own. Clear blue skies form the backdrop to snow-capped mountains and crystal clear rivers and lakes.
- Queenstown is the premier winter destination of the Southern Hemisphere.
- There are six international-standard snow areas to choose from, each with their own ski and snowboarding schools.
- Back country skiing or snowboarding is increasingly popular.
Spring arrives and the mountains and valleys burst into a colourful array of blooming bulbs, annuals and perennials.
- Nearby world heritage areas open their high alpine tracks to travellers.
- The world-renowned Milford, Routeburn, Kepler, Hollyford and Greenstone tracks all use Queenstown as a launch point.
