Arrowtown / Queenstown Local Information
With a past as rich as the gold hidden in the Central Otago hills, Arrowtown is a spectacular alpine playground with plenty to offer the most discerning traveller. Arrowfield Apartments offer premium-quality South Island accommodation in a location that has it all - from the world class golfing at Millbrook Resort to the world-renowned adventure capital of Queenstown, only a short drive away.
The beautiful Queenstown area has so much to enjoy and the Arrowfield Apartments lie at the region's heart. Within easy distance of Coronet Peak, The Remarkables and Cardrona skifields, where else do gold-rush ghost towns come together with the adrenaline-chasing skydiving, bungy jumping, jet-boating lifestyle the area offers?
Arrowtown is a year-round destination. Crisp winter days are packed full of alpine sports and continue on into the spring when the regions streets are lined with cherry blossom. The long golden summer days are best enjoyed at one of the region's many wineries, on a golf course or overlooking a clear alpine lake. Arguably the most picturesque time of the year comes when the stunning reds, gold and yellows that mark the grip of Autumn descend upon the regions trees, and the streets of Arrowtown become awash with colour.
