A 6km loop makes the Moke Lake Loop Track a popular trail for walkers and mountain biking. With views across the lake and mountainous surroundings, it's fair to say this is a scenic route. 

Nothing beats that first sip of an iced cold beer, particularly if you're sitting overlooking the Shotover River. The craft beers on tap are so delicious; beer aficionadas rejoice!

We wouldn't say no to an alpine lakeside retreat, particularly not if it's as insanely beautiful as the Rosewood Matakauri. Glorious views, private lakeside access and a stellar dining scene are only a handful of qualities that make this spot a go-to stay when in Queenstown. 

Talk about idyllic. The Onsen Hot Pools boast some of the most breathtaking views we've ever feasted our eyes upon. Overlooking the Shotover River, relax in the pools before indulging in a serenity soak and massage. This is what true tranquility looks like!
