Wanaka Maps and Orientation
(Wanaka, Otago, New Zealand, NZ)



Located on the southerly side of New Zealand's South Island, the resort town of Wanaka is to be found within the heart of the Otago region. The town stands on the southerly shore of Lake Wanaka and near to the Clutha River and famed Mount Aspiring National Park.

Wanaka is rather surrounded by dramatic mountains and is within easy reach of the north-easterly towns of both Twizel and Omarama. On the southerly outskirts of the town, the Southern Alps provide a majestic backdrop, while the beautiful Matukituki River Valley is also within relative proximity.




Wanaka Maps: Orientation of the City - Wanaka, New Zealand, NZ
The town is easy to find your way around, although if you are planning to travel further afield, then consider paying a visit to either the Lake Wanaka Visitors Centre or the Department of Conservation (DOC) Visitors Centre, both of which reside on Ardmore Street.

A series of popular resorts stand next to Wanaka, such as the Cardrona Alpine Resort, the Snow Park and Treble Cone, which soon become crowded when the mountain snow arrives in New Zealand's winter months (June to August).
