Details About Wanaka

Destinations » Australia/New Zealand » New Zealand » Wanaka


Wanaka is by Lake Wanaka in the Southern Alps and is a predominately tourist and holiday centre. Treble Cone and Cardrona skifields are nearby. The Warbirds Over Wanaka Airshow in April (usually in Easter weekend)is an awesome show but unless you've booked accommodation you won't find anywhere to stay within 100 kilometres - it'll probably attract about 50,000 visitors. There's the MAZE in Wanaka if you like solving puzzles. It is an excellent place to while the day away.
