Spend a morning among the trees and an afternoon among the vines.
Spend an exhilarating morning zip-lining through the beautiful forest canopy high above Queenstown on the Skyline Gondola hill. Journey through the forest on four incredible ziplines (1.5 to 2 hours) with stunning views across Lake Wakatipu to the Remarkables mountain range.
After your zip-lining experience, take a five minute stroll into town and you will have approximately 1 hour to enjoy lunch at your leisure. Our guide will come to collect you at 1:25pm from the Queenstown Central bus stop outside Cafe Marmalada Café (43 Camp Street), to join our afternoon Classic Wine Tour.
You will need to make your own way to the Tree House for check-in at 10.30am. There are two ways to get there:
1. Purchase tickets to ride the Skyline gondola (allow 60mins)
Gondola tickets sold separately. Ride the Skyline gondola to the upper terminal. Exit to your left and walk 100metres, you'll find us just past the helipad.
2. Walk the Tiki Trail (allow 60-90mins)
If you're feeling more adventurous, you can hike the Tiki Trail up Bob's Peak. Allow at least 1-1.5 hours, longer if travelling with children. After a steady uphill climb, you'll approach the Ziptrek Treehouse at the top of the trail on the left-hand side.
