And as soon you arrive, it is plain to see why.The town has the most stunning natural location on the shores of Lake Wakatipu with the Remarkables Mountain Range craggy peaks providing the perfect backdrop for almost every adventure outdoor sport created. This brings adventure seekers here from all around the world in droves.Be warned, the adventure kind of creeps up and just grabs you. Before you know it, you will find yourself bungy jumping from the original RJ Hackett bridge, the birthplace of the bungy and leaping from an aircraft (firmly attached to a professional with a parachute) on the world's highest skydive.&nbsp;<h2>Gay Scene</h2>Queenstown is relatively small and has developed to service the outdoor adventure tourism industry. There aren't any 'exclusively gay' venues, but we've listing a few notable gay-friendly bars on our <a title="Queenstown gay scene" href="https://www.travelgay.com/queenstown-gay-scene/">Queenstown Gay Scene</a> page.Queenstown is, though, the centre of the New Zealand's gay and lesbian adventure travel scene.

Sunny warm days are ideal for the numerous outdoor activities. This is also peak season for tourism so expect the town to be busier and hotels more expensive. Winter is from June until end of August, when Queenstown becomes a ski resort town.&nbsp;<h2>Things to See &amp; Do</h2>Adventure:Queenstown is the birthplace of the bungy jump, and you can still take a leap from the original AJ Hackett Kawarau bridge on the edge of town.  Pumping adrenaline is what it’s all about here.
