For access to the best views in Queenstown there’s only one place to go, Skyline Queenstown. Ride the steepest cable car in the Southern Hemisphere to the top of Bob’s Peak and enjoy stunning views of Coronet Peak, The Remarkables, Walter and Cecil Peak. You don’t need to be a thrill-seeker for this New Zealand adventure, and the best bit, it’s wheelchair accessible.
SKYLINE QUEENSTOWN – WHEELCHAIR ACCESSIBLE NEW ZEALAND
On our first trip to New Zealand BJ was just shy of his seventh birthday and one of our most memorable travel days was had at Skyline Queenstown. We had so much fun it was a no-brainer to put Skyline back on our itinerary when we returned. It was a hard day physically but even more fun because this time I could join in (last time I was pregnant and couldn’t ride the luge) and we had AJ with us.
Then it was time for the action! When we purchased our tickets for the gondola we had the option to include luge rides. It was a difficult decision as we desperately wanted to take BJ on the luge but he was unable to operate one on his own and the only option was doubling him. We’d done that on our first trip to New Zealand but that was before his massive growth spurt, lanky legs and orangutan-like arms.
