Queenstown i<\/strong>s situated on the shores of Lake Wakatipu. While we are small in actual numbers, our Churches are a haven for countless visitors who come for various reasons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Arrowtown<\/strong> is situated 20kms from Queenstown on the banks of the Arrow River. Gold was discovered in the river in 1862 and signalled the start of the gold rush<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Glenorchy<\/strong> is situated 46kms from Queenstown at the head of Lake Wakatipu where the Dart and Rees Rivers enter the lake.
