Food Scene

You can walk to The Hayes - either approx 30 mins along the riverside then up through Lake Hayes Estate, or just stroll through Shotover Country or Lake Hayes Estate to get there. Good food, lovely outdoor areas and generally a nice spot to enjoy a wine in the evening or a great breakfast,

Parks & Nature

Step outside, cross the road then take the track to the left. Keep following it and you'll get some stunning views across the Kawarau River - you can even walk a loop back through Lake Hayes Estate.

There's a beautiful old historic bridge - the Old Shotover Bridge a short stroll away. Step out of the house, across the road and go right, then follow the tracks to the Shotover River and along to the old bridge. There are a couple of information panels there telling stories of the evolution of the bridge.

An 8km loop around the lake takes in so many different outlooks. It's mostly easy walking, soaked in sun and of course there's the option for a swim on a hot day :-)

Yes it's steep but the views from the top make it worth it! Take a moment to rest in the 'Basket of dreams' or hike the extra few minutes to the summit for the best outlooks. Definitely take water and wear good shoes.

Entertainment & Activities

Paragliding off Queenstown's iconic Skyline - there's no better way to see the town, lake and mountains. Fly like a bird, glide down gently or ask your pilot if you'd like a few thrills - then savour the photos for years to come. An incredible activity but we may be a little biased as Dom is a pilot with them :-)
