Walter Plateau Farm, a more accurate translation is: Walter Plateau Ranch. Steamboat ＋ Walter Plateau Ranch Half Day Tour, is a classic trip to Queenstown. Walter Peak, located on the opposite side of the lake southwest of Queenstown. The Walter Plateau Ranch is on the west side of the mountain. The ranch is one of the oldest plateau pastures in New Zealand. It covers an area of hectares during its heyday. After several changes, the current area is hectares, and more than 40,000 Merino sheep, Romney sheep and small meat cattle are kept. Since 1991, the owner of the ranch leased 162 hectares of land on the lake to the travel agency, and opened up a "grass tour" tourism project. Therefore, many tourists will feel "the plateau is not high, the pasture is not big" when visiting. The pasture tour has a lot of points and is beautiful. First, the view of "grassage". The "shearing show" is lively and interesting. A hairy sheep, with the assistance of the shepherd's knife and collie, has been bare and cute for a while. "Shepherds drive sheep" is vivid and intuitive, and a few collie dogs ＋ a group of lambs, let tourists feel the little bits of sheep. "Animal feeding", you can contact alpacas, lambs, calfs at close range, pat ~ too late. The second is to view the "view". When you go to the pasture, take a 45-minute voyage by steamboat, or take a 30-minute voyage by speedboat, along the lake and mountain scenery, I can't wait to say. Upon arrival, the east side of the ranch pier is the tourist area and the west side is the villa area, the most eye-catching "Colonel's House" built in 1902. Because of the tight time, I gave up close contact with small animals and went to the villa area to explore the red roof with white walls, greenery lined with flowers, and the scenery was beautiful to the extreme. In the courtyard, in front of the porch, on the green, in the flowers, by the bench, by the lake beach, stroll around and enjoy the pat, and you can't stop. The third is to taste "food". During the ranch tour, you can choose to enjoy afternoon tea or BBQ buffet. Tea and meals, the variety is not rich, but the taste is authentic and delicious, plus the environment is elegant, the atmosphere is harmonious, it is also a good experience.

Queenstown tourism signage program, a classical steamboat to go, the farm cattle, sheep and alpacas are very cute, the package has afternoon tea and buffet options, as well as the performance of driving lamb and shearing wool, not bad to experience life.

Aboard the nostalgic steamship TSS Ernstlau and cross Lake Wakatip to Walter Peak. Enjoy a farm barbecue and learn about farm life, and get excited about petting and feeding sheep. In addition to watching animals, visitors can watch shearing and sheepdog sheep drive

Don't be scared by the name, the altitude is the same as Queenstown. If you compare the shape of Lake Wakatip to a sitting person, Queenstown is at the knees, it is at the hips, it can be reached by steamboat, and the dock is. The farm is backed by mountains and faces the lake. Several European-style buildings are dotted with the beautiful lakes and mountains. Here you can participate in sheep feeding activities, you can also see the sheep dog driving show, you can also taste English afternoon tea or barbecue dinner, the project is rich, you can play for most of the day.
