LAKE WANAKA

Wanaka translates to “ the place of learning” and this lake is the fourth largest lake in New Zealand.  The lake looks jaw-droppingly beautiful with snow-clad mountains and attractive landscapes around and is one of the worthwhile offbeat places to see in Queenstown New Zealand.

Sprawling across 193 square kilometers, the lake is also a perfect place to experience adventurous water sports like jet boat rides, sailing, and kayaking. Visit this lake during spring when the lake sparkles in its full glory to capture some picture-perfect moments.

Location: Queenstown-Lakes District, Otago, South Island
