Wanaka
There’s more than one reason it’s called the world’s first lifestyle reserve. The lack of crowds; the freedom to do what you love; the scenery; the space among the like-minded; the welcome from people who understand; the energy and the daring; the crystal water. The Lake Wanaka region is about so much more than discovering a natural wonderland of mountains, glaciers, rivers and lakes – it’s about warm welcomes from passionate people who love to share their paradise. It is about adventure at your own pace, in your own time, in your own way.
