Wanaka

The place to be for thrill seekers and adventure seekers.

Wanaka Lies in the Otago region on the South Island of New Zealand. The lake is surrounded by the Southern Alps and is named after the nearby lake. Wanaka, like Queenstown, is the place for the thrill seekers and other adventure seekers among us, but just a little less commercial. It lies on the south shore of the beautiful blue Lake Wanaka and is surrounded by high mountains. Wanaka has a lot to offer when it comes to sports. You can go kayaking, horseback riding, fishing, camping, hiking, mountain biking and much more. The endless adventures in Mount Aspiring National Park and its surrounding landscape are what keep people coming back.
