Queenstown Gardens
A botanical garden on a peninsula reaching into Lake Wakatipu, with a lakeside walk, rose gardens and a disc golf course. It is a free place to stroll in the town centre.
Queenstown Gardens dates back to 1867 and occupies a peninsula next to the town centre, about 5 minutes' walk from the wharf. The gardens have tall oak and redwood trees, rose gardens and ponds. The lakeside loop track takes about 40 minutes and offers views of The Remarkables and Walter Peak across the lake. The gardens include a world-famous disc golf course, tennis courts and an outdoor ice rink in winter. Entry is free, and it is a great place for an evening stroll to watch the sunset.
