Overview

Explore Queenstown at your own pace on this self-guided walking tour through the heart of New Zealand’s adventure capital. Stroll the lively pedestrian mall with its boutiques, cafés, and street performers, then meet William Rees, the town’s founder, at his bronze statue.

Relax by Lake Wakatipu at Queenstown Beach, framed by soaring mountains, or pause at the WWI Memorial Gate before admiring Queenstown’s oldest building, Williams Cottage.

Along the way, discover the charm of St Peter’s Anglican Church, the history-rich Speight’s Ale House, and Queenstown’s legendary foodie icons like Fergburger.

For thrills, spot paragliders, check out iFLY Indoor Skydiving, or ride the Skyline Gondola to panoramic views and luge tracks. Wind down with markets, lakefront parks, or even a cocktail in the Ice Bar.

This walk blends history, scenery, and adventure into one unforgettable Queenstown experience.

Activity itinerary

William Gilbert Rees Statue
  • 5m
Meet Queenstown’s founder! This bronze statue marks the town’s roots—from Rees’s first farm to the gold rush boom. Nearby, Eichardt’s Hotel and Patagonia Chocolates add history and sweet indulgence.
Memorial Street
  • 10m
This stone arch honours 35 locals lost in WWI, with all 83 who served remembered. Step through and you’ll see Queenstown Gardens—lush, peaceful, and filled with trails and stunning lake views.
Williams Cottage
  • 5m
Built in 1864, this is Queenstown’s oldest building. Once home to settler John Williams, today it houses Vesta Design Boutique showcasing NZ art, jewellery, and crafts in a true gold rush relic.
Church Lane
  • 5m
A cosy, affordable café tucked on Church Lane. Locals love it for Wolf Coffee Roasters brews and hearty brunch buns—perfect fuel for exploring. It’s no-fuss Queenstown charm at its best.
St Peter's Anglican Church
  • 15m
  • Admission ticket included
A fairytale stone church built in 1930s Gothic style. Its steeple, tower, and arched windows make it one of Queenstown’s most photogenic landmarks, loved for both worship and tranquil beauty.
Speight's Ale House
  • 5m
This charming stone ale house was once the rowdy council chambers. Next door, the 1877 library and 1876 courthouse—historic schist buildings—still stand as proud gold rush survivors.
Fergburger
  • 10m
The burger pilgrimage spot—giant, legendary, and worth the wait (or order online to skip the line). Next door, Fergbaker and Mrs Ferg Gelateria tempt you with pies, pastries, and gelato.
Earnslaw Park
  • 5m
A lakeside green space perfect for picnics, with Remarkables views, a quirky Moa statue, and weekend markets. Families, couples, and sunbathers all gather here—it’s Queenstown at its most relaxed.
Steamer Wharf
  • 10m
Your finale! A lakeside hub of restaurants, bars, and history. It’s home to the TSS Earnslaw, a 1912 steamship offering cruises and farm tours—an elegant link to Queenstown’s pioneering past.
