Queenstown, New Zealand
Discovering Queenstown: The Adventure Capital of the World
Nestled on the shores of the crystal-clear Lake Wakatipu and surrounded by the majestic Southern Alps, Queenstown, New Zealand, is a breathtaking destination renowned for its natural beauty and thrilling adventures. Often referred to as the “Adventure Capital of the World,” Queenstown offers a myriad of outdoor activities that attract thrill-seekers and nature lovers from around the globe.
One of the most iconic activities in Queenstown is bungee jumping. The sport was commercialized here by A.J. Hackett in the late 1980s, and the Kawarau Bridge Bungy, the world’s first commercial bungee jump site, remains one of the most popular spots for this heart-stopping experience. Standing 43 meters (141 feet) above the Kawarau River, the bridge offers an exhilarating plunge that has become a rite of passage for many adventure enthusiasts.
For those seeking more airborne excitement, skydiving over Queenstown provides a unique perspective of the region’s stunning landscapes. As you freefall from thousands of feet above the ground, you’ll be treated to unparalleled views of the Remarkables mountain range, Lake Wakatipu, and the surrounding valleys. The rush of adrenaline combined with the awe-inspiring scenery makes skydiving in Queenstown an unforgettable experience.
