About RealNZ | Walter Peak High Country Farm

Walter Peak High Country Farm is a rural destination on the shores of Lake Whakatipu, reached from Queenstown by a return cruise on the TSS Earnslaw, a steamship built in 1912. Visitors take the farm experiences on offer, including a guided gardens tour with a Garden to Table Experience, or a gourmet barbecue at the Homestead Restaurant.

The restaurant also hosts Christmas celebrations in a lakeside setting, packaged with the cruise and a house beverage per guest. Europeans settled Walter Peak in the 1860s, and it is now a preserved rural destination with views across the lake to Queenstown.

RealNZ runs the farm alongside other tours and cruises around Queenstown, Fiordland and Stewart Island. Rated 4.7 from 3369 Google reviews, 2665 of them five stars.
