New Zealand's "Adventure Capital"-Queenstown
In this famous alpine resort town, you will find a lot of interesting things waiting for you to try: experience the charm of snow sports at the nearby world-class ski resorts; experience the thrills and thrills of bungee jumping and jet boats; and take part in food and wine tours to feast off.
Queenstown is the most precipitous, beautiful and exciting area in the country, so the area is named after "New Zealand's most famous outdoor activity paradise" and is often praised as New Zealand's "adventure capital." In summer, the sky is blue and sunny. In autumn, bright red and golden leaves are dyed colorful. In winter, the climate is refreshing and clear, and there are large mountains covered with snow. In spring, flowers are in full bloom. The four seasons are distinct, each with a completely different appearance. Tens of thousands of tourists come here every year for sightseeing.
There are about 220 activities and attractions operated all year round. From legendary bungee jumping to jet boats, from rafting to mountain biking, outdoor explorers can be seen everywhere. Once winter is over, the ski slopes on Coronet Peak become bicycle sightseeing downsides. The ancient Captain's Canyon Backpacker Trail will take you to more historical attractions, and the down-skiing experience at Bob's Peak will make it even more exciting.
Winter vacation Queenstown is the best resort, with multiple ski resorts, charming skiing culture and colorful winter festivals, which attracts countless tourists to this vibrant resort town to spend the cold winter time.
Coronet Peak has the oldest and most famous ski resort in the Southern Lakes. It is very suitable for skiing at night and early morning, so its skiing time is longer than other ski resorts in New Zealand. Excellent Mountain Ski Resort is conveniently located from Queenstown.

It lasts for 10 days and has more than 60 activities, which are rich in content and range from a wide range, including sports, art, music, comedy, food, wine, and all aspects related to mountains. Gay Ski Week is another popular festival in Queenstown. It is held from the end of August to the beginning of September every year and is the largest gay alpine gathering in the Southern Hemisphere.
