Southern Lakes Travel Guide
Southern Lakes accommodation, Southern Lakes activities and attractions, Southern Lakes maps, transportation to and around Southern Lakes - the Jasons Southern Lakes Destination Travel Guide is your complete visitor guide for Southern Lakes.
The Southern Lakes region is one of New Zealand’s highlights, with towering mountains and the deep freshwater lakes of Queenstown and Wanaka creating a truly majestic vista. You’ll find a huge variety of leisure and adventure activities in the Southern Lakes region, from bungy jumping and skydiving to scenic flights and hiking, or just relax and take in the panoramic views. Queenstown is a favourite with adventure lovers and winter skiers, or head to Arrowtown to enjoy the colourful goldmining history or a stroll beside the Arrowtown River.
Beautiful Wanaka and Makarora are handy to the alpine scenery and attractions of Mt Aspiring National Park, with its magnificent hiking and climbing. Lake Hawea, with its snow-
capped mountains and crystal clear lake, is perfect for a spot of fishing, or explore the walking trails in the hills surrounding Glenorchy, where fillming for the Lord of the Rings trilogy took place. During the summer, you can catch a ride on Kingston’s historic steamtrain, the Kingston Flyer, which passes through 14km of breathtaking mountain scenery.
