Que faire au Lac Wanaka

Lake Wānaka Essentials

Lake Wānaka offers a mix of natural landmarks and local institutions. The region features the world-renowned 'lone tree' at the lake’s edge and the steep ascent of Roys Peak, which provides views of the Southern Alps. Visitors can explore the 1973-established Puzzling World maze or visit the biodynamic Rippon vineyard. Unique local culture is found at Cinema Paradiso, a theater known for its vintage seating and mid-movie cookies, while the nearby Lavender Farm and Lake Hawea lookout provide distinct agricultural and geological perspectives of the Otago landscape.
