Queenstown is the apres-ski and adventure capital of the Southern Hemisphere. Not only is this resort town surrounded by spectacular alpine scenery, it has a whole raft of adrenaline-pumping activities on offer.

Shoot the mountain gorge rapids by raft or jet boat, hurl yourself off a bridge or helicopter to outstanding views and senational untracked powder - it's all yours for the taking in Queenstown.

If the most action you want after a day on the slopes is lifting a cold beer or a renowned local Pinot Noir - then Queenstown is the place for that too. The town is known for its cafes, bars, restaurants and night-clubs - full of people who know how to party hard.

And during the daytime, there's great shopping, scenic trips on Lake Wakatipu, sightseeing day trips to stunning Milford Sound, international standard golf courses and much more to give your holiday the ultimate mix of action and relaxation.

This vibrant combination makes Queenstown more than just a skiing holiday!
