The Place
Queenstown, New Zealand
City introduction
The adventure capital between a lake and the Remarkables. Queenstown packs the world's adventure menu into one alpine setting: bungee's birthplace, jet boats through Shotover canyons, skiing in winter, Milford Sound's fjords a day trip away, and Lake Wakatipu's blue beneath the Remarkables. Fergburger is the humble price of admission.
