#3 of 31 Nature & Parks in Queenstown
"The walk itself is also more varied (having the Tiki Trail forest, the steady climb to the saddle and then the steep scramble to the summit) which made it a little more interesting than the zig zag of Roy’s Peak.""My boyfriend and I are of average fitness or slightly above, typical office worker level and we were very apprehensive due to the reviews about the level of skill and fitness needed to complete the Ben Lomond summit."

Tiki Trail

#13 of 31 Nature & Parks in Queenstown
"Also it’s quite a short hike (1 hour up, 40 min back down) and finishing up at the skyline saves you the gondola trip up! 100% recommend as it wasn’t too difficult and was just a great walk the entire way!""The first half of the “way up”’is probably the most challenging, as there are steep inclines, rocky sections and lots of tree roots to climb over."
Lake Alta Track

#18 of 31 Nature & Parks in Queenstown
