The Gondola ride up to Bob's Peak is the steepest cable car ride in the southern hemisphere. The climb is to 450m above Queenstown and Lake Wakatipu, to 220 degree views of the mountains and the town and lake below. At the top, those keen on adventure can take a Luge ride. For those wishing to warm up there is mulled wine and hot chocolate. Comfort food is available in the form of lasagne or a buffet dinner at the Stratosfare Restaurant and Bar, followed by stargazing. The cable operates from 9 am to 9 pm, year round. Private and corporate group packages are available.
