A drive to Bannockburn will take just under 1 hour. If you want to have lunch at Mt Difficulty, it is best to book in advance. Stop off at Old Cromwell Town to explore heritage buildings, many with artisan businesses in them, located on the shore of Lake Dunstan.

Sightseeing

The tree has become very popular thanks to social media - worth a visit even though there will always be other people there. Go for a nice walk along the lake to Waterfall Creek, stop in for a coffee or lunch at Edgewater or wine tasting at Rippon.

Parks & Nature

We recommend Rob Roy Glacier over Mt Roy! It is a 10km walk starting from the Raspberry Creek Car Park (1 hour drive from Wanaka). Walk through the valley then cross the swing bridge into beech forest. Spectacular views and the best glacier access in NZ.
