The Otago Central Rail Trail: Explore the Otago Central Rail Trail by foot or by bike (our recommended property, the Kokonga Lodge, is located on the rail trail and bikes are available for guest use). Steeped in a sense of history and remoteness, the trail provides a chance to view scenery not able to be seen from the highway. It also has preserved an important part of Otago's history as it was once a vital link between the city of Dunedin and Central Otago.
The Big Picture Wine Tour: Experience New Zealand's fastest growing (and the world's southernmost) wine region with an exciting and innovative tasting experience. 'The Big Picture' is a one stop wine adventure to take you on a journey of discovery through wine. You'll uncover the fine wines of Central Otago, meet the winemakers and view the stunning scenery that makes this region so geographically unique. Enjoy the local and Mediterranean flavors of the restaurant, discover the way senses can describe wine varieties in the Aroma Room, and culminate the experience with an interactive tasting flight of six local wines.
Clutha River Cruises: Our signature Heritage Tour gives you unparalleled close-ups of scenery, native plants and wild-life nestled among the rocks on the banks of the isolated reaches of the "mighty Clutha" River. Journey with your guide in a quiet, stable pontoon boat with an exceptionally smooth ride, along the isolated reaches of the historic and picturesque thyme-studded Roxbourgh Gorge. Marvel at some of New Zealand's best examples of European and Chinese Mining as you cruise past gold miners huts from the 1860's while taking in the stunning scenery of Central Otago.
