Wanaka Local Information

Casual, laid back and relaxing – Wanaka is a true alpine getaway.

Escape the urbanised streets of Queenstown and get back to nature in Otago’s ‘other’ alpine resort, Wanaka.  100kms from the hustle and bustle of popular Queenstown, Wanaka is a mecca for rest, relaxation and rejuvenation - with a good dose of adrenaline on the side! 

A pristine lake and alpine surrounds make Wanaka a true alpine haven.  Gateway to Mount Aspiring National Park, this region hums all year round.

In the summer Wanaka is a holiday hot-spot popular with hikers, mountain bikers, boaties and fishermen.  Small in size, but big on hospitality, the main township has an ample supply of cafes, restaurants and nightspots.
