Top 7 Points of Interest & Landmarks in Queenstown, South Island

March 18, 2022 Mikaela Didonna

Staggering beauty and heart-pumping thrills await in the resort town of Queenstown, which is also known for its Hobbits—much of the Lord of the Rings trilogy was filmed in the area. Outdoor enthusiasts flock to Queenstown for the kayaking, bungee jumping, jetboating, white-water rafting, hiking and skiing. More mild-mannered adventurers can take a quiet cruise through nearby Milford Sound, part of the Fjordland National Park World Heritage area, or sample South Island pinot noir from one of the region's 75 wineries.

Historic Skippers School

Reviewed By Flash2004 - New Plymouth, New Zealand

A fantastic place to visit but not recommended for the average motorist, the road is so narrow and the drops so far down into the river it’s just too dangerous. Take one of the organised tours is my advice, but do go there if you get the chance. Just the massive swing bridge built in 1900 and still NZ’s highest at 91m above the river below is worth the trip.

William Gilbert Rees Statue

Reviewed By ChristopherC911 - Selby, United Kingdom

A fantastic bronze statue located near the water front to remember the life of the man who started Queenstown. Well worth a stop to read the inscription.
