Enjoy a scenic cruise across Lake Whakatipu and experience New Zealand's farming lifestyle at the Walter Peak High Country Farm with afternoon tea included
Farming in the New Zealand high country is a way of life – and it’s one you can get up close to at Walter Peak. Situated on the picturesque shores of Lake Whakatipu, with a colonial homestead and beautiful lakeside gardens, Walter Peak High Country Farm is the perfect place to spend a relaxing few hours. Begin this combo tour with a relaxing scenic boat ride across Lake Whakatipu aboard a modern catamaran, the Spirit of Queenstown.
You will be greeted by our rural host upon disembarking the vessel. From the amphitheatre, you will watch the remarkable skill with which the farm dogs round up sheep from the paddocks. Enjoy a walking tour of the farmyard, visiting the holding pens, where you can help feed the sheep and deer and even get up close to the Scottish Highland Cattle. Then a stroll to the charming old woolshed for morning or afternoon tea. You may have time to wander through the lakeside gardens before you re-board the Spirit of Queenstown for your cruise back to Queenstown.

Cute Animals
We had a wonderful day at Walter’s Peak. As expected, the ride from the town to the farm was efficient! The views along the way are so majestic! At the farm, everything is so pleasing to the eyes. Our hosts, Ashley and her dog Mist are amazing. They entertained us. The farm animals are so cute! The foods are delicious. Watch out for the birds though. They might eat you food the moment you leave your table. Overall, we had fun at the farm.
