Queenstown city center map
A map of the city center of Queenstown with street-level detail showing the names of streets in Queenstown, South Island, New Zealand.
Queenstown is a popular tourist destination, which has become more popular in recent years. Its popularity is also evident from its growth.
More and more development is taking place in Queenstown, and in a short amount of years it has grown from being a busy little town to a busy city, so much so, that it is almost always peak season in Queenstown.
Queenstown can be visited during any season of the year, because there is almost always something going on in Queenstown and/or many activities you can do. But my favorite season to visit Queenstown is definitely during winter in New Zealand.
And if you do get bored, you could always drive from Queenstown to Glenorchy and back (Glenorchy to Queenstown) to enjoy spectacular New Zealand scenery.

Things to do in Queenstown
Most tourists visit Queenstown for skiing and snowboarding, but you can do much more in Queenstown year-round.
It is the bungy jumping capital of New Zealand and the location to be for other adrenaline pumping activities.
In addition, many activities can be booked and start in Queenstown, with activity operators offering pickups from Queenstown hotels and motels. For example, while you could drive all the way to Milford Sound to experience a cruise, if you’re short on time, you could fly to Milford Sound, do the cruise, and then fly back.
All with pick-up and drop-off at the Queenstown hotel you’re staying at. And it only takes you half a day. I did the fly-cruise-fly tour back in 2001 when I traveled to New Zealand alone and must say it was great!
Queenstown is also a good destination for day walks that take you up in the mountains and provide some spectacular scenery around Lake Wakatipu.
Scenic drives around Queenstown
From Queenstown, you can go on several scenic drives such as the Queenstown – Kingston scenic drive, the Queenstown – Cromwell scenic drive, the Queenstown – Glenorchy scenic drive, or the scenic drive up to Crown Range.
