Guide to Southern Lakes - New Zealand Holidays

From wine-growing districts and virgin forest to majestic, rugged mountains this region is truly spectacular. A wild coastline is indented by the incomparable Milford and Doubtful Sounds and with the vibrant town of Queenstown offering an astonishing range and variety of activities and adventure, together with a rich heritage of prospectors and their legacy, this region has something very special to offer everyone.


Queenstown at dusk

Each of the following locations may be selected for further information and details of holidays within that location.


Queenstown

 

Queenstown is New Zealand's spectacular alpine resort nestling between mountains and a lake. Established as a base for gold prospectors in the nineteenth century the township has much to offer today's visitor.


Milford Sound

 

Located within the Fiordland National Park, much of which is inaccessible by road, lies the breathtaking Milford Sound.



Doubtful Sound

 

Located in a World Heritage Area, Doubtful Sound is an overwhelming place. You can feel the power of nature here - the remoteness, the wildness and the peace. The breadth and stillness of the water (Doubtful Sound has been called 'the Sound of Silence') give all who are fortunate enough to visit a feeling of natural serenity.



Wanaka

  At the heart of the Southern Lakes region Wanaka forms a key junction for many visitors crossing the Southern Alps. Heading to or from Queenstown by road Wanaka should be o­n your route and is certainly worth a visit. From the West Coast you'll cross the Haast Pass and drop down between the beautiful Lakes Hawea and Wanaka. From the East its an equally convenient route from Mount Cook and Christchurch.
