 Central Otago is a high plateau of plains and rolling farmland in the southern part of New Zealand's South Island. Rich in pioneering history and Scottish ancestry, it is the site of New Zealand's first gold rush.
Scenes from all over the Central Otago were used in The Lord of the Rings movies. As Arwen ferried the wounded Frodo across the Ford of Bruinen, they were actually only minutes from the centre of Arrowtown, about 30 minutes drive from Alexandra.
 New Zealand is a recognised international ski
holiday destination, with Northern Hemisphere skiers in particular appreciating reverse seasons. The South Island, hosts four ski fields centred around Queenstown and Wanaka, together offering some of the finest ski and snowboard terrain in the world.
 Spend the afternoon sampling award winning
local vintages and learning the secrets of the world's southernmost wine growing region. Central Otago has won more gold medals for Pinot Noir than any other New Zealand region.
