Queenstown Lakes: Lakes & Rivers

The Queenstown Lakes district features diverse glacial-formed bodies of water ranging from the expansive Lake Wānaka and Lake Hāwea to smaller alpine gems. These sites are fed by mountain runoff and glaciers, resulting in deep blue hues and high water clarity. The Blue Pools, located within Mount Aspiring National Park, showcase glacial water flowing into the Makarora River. This collection highlights the region's unique geography, including "The Neck"—the narrow strip of land separating two of New Zealand’s largest lakes.
