Wanaka, New Zealand

Wanaka is one of the South Island’s best all-seasons resort, lying at the heart of the Southern Lakes in New Zealand’s alpine wonderland. 

The township is situated in a dramatic glacial basin on the shores of one of New Zealand’s most beautiful lakes, and is the gateway to the Mt Aspiring National Park World Heritage Area.

There's an energy that sets Wanaka apart

From the blossoms of spring to the shimmering heat of summer, through autumn days with trees of flaming gold and into the dazzling light of winter, Lake Wanaka welcomes all comers: adrenaline addicts, foot-sore travellers, lovers of good food, wine and luxury. Take time to explore this exquisite piece of real New Zealand and revitalise your spirit.

Whatever the time of year there are a host of varied activities for everyone. From the action and adrenaline of some of the world’s best skiing and jet boating experiences to the serenity of scenic walks amongst Central Otago’s glorious golden terrain, fishing on Lake Wanaka or the nearby rivers or taking a tour of the surrounding area.

June to September is our ski season. Enjoy the cool slopes of Cardrona, Treble Cone, Snow Park and Snow Farm skifields, just 45 minutes drive away.
