Central Otago Activities 

The Central Otago region is of major historical importance for the Ngai Tahu Maori tribe who  traveled through there regularly before colonization by the British. Once famous for its gold mines, an excellent Central Otago activity option is to experience the gold rush in one of the numerous museums and historic sites. Not only limited to historical adventures, Central Otago activities also include perfect hiking tracks leading through alpine environments and arcane valleys, great fishing possibilities for salmon or trout, or water-skiing in the lake of Central Otago. In winter you can enjoy skiing at the internationally renowned ski fields.
