What you can expect

  • Take a scenic gondola ride to the top of Cardrona Alpine Resort and immerse yourself in the spectacular beauty of the Southern Alps. At the summit, you’ll enjoy panoramic 360-degree views stretching across Queenstown, Lake Whakatipu, and on clear days, even as far as Aoraki Mount Cook.

    Don’t miss the chance to relax or snap a photo on the picture-perfect Cardrona Swing or enjoy a drink at our Vista Bar.

    Whether you’re seeking adventure or simply wish to soak in the scenery, a return gondola ride ensures a comfortable journey back to the base, making this a must-do for visitors looking to experience the very best of Cardrona.

    After the fun, keep the good vibes going with a visit to one of our tasty on-mountain dining options.
