Staying in Queenstown

Accommodation in Queenstown over the busy summer period fills up fast. We'd hate you to miss out on your preferred date to walk because of it, so we suggest you secure your accommodation in Queenstown at the same time as your walk - and we suggest you do both early! Especially if you are intending to book your walk between 20 December and 31st January when the resort is very busy!
