"Queenstown - the adrenaline ca ..." a Queenstown Travel Page by grets

A beautifully scenic setting on the shores of Lake Wakatipu, Queenstown is the adrenaline capital of the South Island. If you are into adventure sports, extreme sports or just normal gentle outdoor activities, you can find it here, in winter as in summer.
