Queenstown is sometimes called the action capital of the world and the title is justified when you consider the concentration of adrenalin activities on offer and the fact that some of them originate in New Zealand such as bungee jumping and jet boating. In addition there is parapenting, white water rafting, tramping (hiking),four wheel drive treks, scenic flights,and a host of other activities .
Queenstown's most popular pastime however is skiing. There are a number of world class 
ski fields
that operate during the northern hemisphere summer.
Queenstown also has a fine range of shops and restaurants as well as an abundance of tour operators and travel agents. It is easy to book any of the exciting adventures on offer here and the surrounding area. One trip that comes highly recommended is a sightseeing flight over nearby Fiordland National Park. The scenery is spectacular as you get a birds eye view of this steep and mountainous World Heritage Area.
Queenstown is the world's southernmost wine and cuisine centre and is famous for its Pinot noir which fetches premium prices.
