Apart from being famous as Lord of the Rings country, Queenstown is also the destination for all kinds of adventure seekers - skiing, of course, bungy jumping, sky diving, white water rafting, you name it. And the town demographics and nightlife reflected this. We felt a little "old" when we were there. Our most extreme sport was climbing the steep hill to hop on the gondola to the top for the panorama.
