Gently
resting against the aqua blue edge of Lake Wakatipu is the historic
town of Glenorchy. Built originally by the Scheelite miners of 1862 and
most recently utilized as the stunning imagery of Middle Earth,
Glenorchy and its surrounding areas have come to be meccas for
adventurous trampers and afternoon wanders alike. Just 40km outside of
the hustle and bustle of Queenstown this little village with just over
200 people, Glenorchy is the ideal gateway for some of the finest
tramping in the world.
Glenorchy
Lodge has just had a major face lift, including a new coat of paint and a fresh clean interior. Make your way up the lake for the
best cup of tea in the Wakatipu. Yes that's right, not only do Henry
and Liz make a great cup of L'affare, NZ's favorite coffee, they
are specializing in TEA. The menu has had a dramatic thrust into the
21st century with such favorites as Steak Sandwich and BLT, all for
extremely reasonable prices.
A holiday home in Paradise, ideal for families
and romantic couples,
this is a brand new
build bathed in quality fittings and furnishings.
Matagouri Lodge can be found 35 minutes out
of the hustle and
bustle of
Queenstown, in
the Wakatipu basin’s best kept secret,
Glenorchy. A true
alpine village and gateway.......
