Experience Queenstown from the best backpackers in town

Adventure is on your doorstep!

Queenstown is quite simply the adventure capital of the world – no questions asked!

Tucked into a picturesque bay on the calming shores of Lake Whakatipu and surrounded by jagged peaks, the magical feel of the town hits before you even touch down.  The breathtaking aerial view of the regions’ arresting scenery makes you want to get out there and experience it for yourself.

The local passion for adrenalin sports rubs off on visitors – many leave having tried something they said they would never do.  Some of us never leave at all, having been bitten by the dopamine bug that keeps you coming back for more!

Personal discovery lies in the strangest of places and the town offers endless options: bungy jumping, skiing & snowboarding, whitewater rafting, tramping, mountain biking, canyoning, paragliding, jetboating, and skydiving to list just a few.

Queenstown has its own unique brand of relaxation too – hidden away in every corner are intimate bars, cafés and restaurants offering a sophisticated urban feel, while exclusive spas offer luxurious pampering treatments.

It’s the soul-touching, ‘anything is possible’ atmosphere that gives Queenstown its edge.  Add to this the endless action-packed days and some of the world’s best food and wine and you couldn’t find a more inspiring resort town!
