Walter Peak High Country Farm

Walter Peak High Country Farm, a working sheep and cow ranch, offers a glimpse into rural life on New Zealand’s South Island. Nestled along the shores of Lake Wakatipu, the farm is largely inaccessible by car, making the journey part of the experience. Most visitors arrive via the beautifully restored TSS Earnslaw steamship, which glides across the lake from Queenstown. Upon arrival, guests can explore the farm’s pastoral setting, where they can witness daily agricultural activities and gain insight into the region’s rich farming heritage.
