Horse Riding with High Country Horses
While you're in Queenstown, you'd be silly not to enjoy the stunning scenery that surrounds you. The Playground is situated at the bottom of the beautiful Coronet Peak, but if you head out to the top of the lake for a ride with the High Country team, you'll get to take in picturesque mountain views and experience glacial-fed river-crossings. As well as getting back to nature, you'll be captivated by stories of the area, hear about the region's rich history and get to see many of the filming locations from hollywood blockbusters (including Lord of the Rings!) This magical ride will give the experienced riders in your group the opportunity to canter and beginners the chance to learn. Enjoy a real Kiwi experience and make some memories that your group will cherish forever.
Ziptrek Eco Tour -
If you haven't had enough adrenaline at The Playground, your group of fun-loving ladies can head to Ziptrek, at the top of Skyline's Gondola on Bob's Peak to enjoy an exhilirating Zipline tours, through the spectacular forest canopy high above Queenstown. Best of all, Ziptrek pride themselves on being eco-friendly and super sutainable, so you'll get all of the thrills, plus the good feels.
Ten Pin Bowling -
If you're still up for another challenge, after your time at The Playground, grab your girlfriends for a game or 2 of Ten Pin Bowling. Place bets on who'll get a strike and who will strike out - loser buys the shots!
Clay Bird Shooting
Once you've honed your shooting skills at The Playground, head out of town for some clay bird shooting. The session will include targets, full instruction and coaching that will guarantee your competitive streak comes out!
Shotover Canyon Swing and Fox -
Whether you choose to do a Swing or Fox, one thing will stay the same - you'll have an unforgettable adrenaline-filled experience like no other! The combination of banter and bonding, while gazing out over the Shotover Canyon (and maybe plunging into it!) makes this a great choice for any Hen's group.
White Water Rafting with Queenstown Rafting -
If you're lucky enough to have a few days to spend in Queenstown and are looking to up-the-ante after a day at The Playground, why not head out on a White Water Rafting trip through the spectacular Skippers Canyon and see the famous Shotover River first-hand! Your groups of girls will have to work as a team, as to make it through the roaring rapids.
