Queenstown Hill is a 2,976-feet (907-meter) high mountain beside Queenstown. It is a favorite for both locals and tourists for its proximity and sweeping views. It is also known by the Māori name of Te Tapu-nui which means “mountain of intense sacredness.” From the northeast edge of town on Belfast Terrace, the Queenstown Hill Time Walk makes its way steeply up Queenstown Hill. Step through the gate and wind your way up through the trees. The path was built in the year 2000 to celebrate the millennium. The reference to “Time” in the name reflects that this walk is about the past, present and future of Queenstown. Information panels along the way describe the area's history. The hill is still a working sheep farm and the Queenstown Hill Time Walk is on land owned by the family who runs the farm, so remember that you are on private land. As you walk, enjoy the tranquility of the Douglas fir and larch forest that surrounds you. The forest gives way to rolling hills of grassland as you go higher. The trail splits for a while before joining again at a large sculpture called *Basket of Dreams*. Make sure you stop at this rocky point to appreciate its symbolic meaning and the panoramic views. Look down on Queenstown on the shores of Lake Wakatipu. Across the water, The Remarkables and Cecil Peak are some of the more celebrated giants of this mountain-rich landscape. If you want to take it easy, just turn back here. If you have some energy left, another third of a mile (half a kilometer) will reward you with more extensive views. The whole walk takes between 1.5 to 3 hours return, depending on your fitness and the weather. The walk is suitable for any time of year and each season has a new mood to share. Bring sun protection and water along in summer and be aware you could be walking through snow in winter. Queenstown Hill can be reached by car but is also easily accessed from the town center on foot. A small carpark on Belfast Terrace marks the start of the trail. Parking here is free of charge. ### Where to stay in Queenstown Hill ![Default Image](https://images.trvl-media.com/media/content/expus/graphics/deals/TE_Clouds_card_r1.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=350&h=192&q=medium) ### Goldfield Heights While there might not be top attractions in Goldfield Heights, you can explore the larger area and discover places like Queenstown Mall and Skycity Queenstown Casino.
