Spring in New Zealand!
Spring season – stunning mountains, beautiful lakes, cool wind flowing through your hair. Which country comes into your mind when you picture this experience? Switzerland? Austria? Canada?
Let me introduce you to the stunning beauty of New Zealand instead. Hidden away in New Zealand’s South Island is the small town of Queenstown. Queenstown is situated on the shore line of Lake Wakatipu, the third largest lake by surface area in New Zealand and known for its commerce-oriented tourism, especially adventure and ski tourism.

The surrounding villages of Wanaka, Arrowtown and Glenorchy are also extremely famous. The 45-minute drive from Queenstown to the town of Glenorchy is one of the most scenic routes in the world. Glenorchy was home to iconic scene in famous films such as Lord of The Rings, The Hobbit and the Bollywood movie, Kaho Na Pyaar Hai. Glenorchy also features Instagram icons such as the boatshed, The Glenorchy House and also the Wanaka Tree at the southern banks of Wanaka Lake.
