your visit to Queenstown in the South island of New Zealand wouldn't complete without hiking up to the Ben Lomond and it took me 7 hours to hike up and go down. Actually, we can take the gondola skyline to the station and then take the Ben Lomond track, but I prefer walking from the bottom to the top.

your visit to Queenstown in the South island of New Zealand wouldn't complete without hiking up to the Ben Lomond and it took me 7 hours to hike up and go down. Actually, we can take the gondola skyline to the station and then take the Ben Lomond track, but I prefer walking from the bottom to the top.
It's worth a visit. We are talking about climbing, time for reference: about nine o'clock from the entrance next to the cable car entrance, to 11 or 12 o'clock to the rest before the summit to have lunch, the last road to the summit is very difficult to walk, a lot of rubble and slippery, about a little more to the top, it took about two hours to go down the mountain. It's more than six hours in total.
This road is far away, not the general traveler can control. The scenery along the way is beautiful, from Queenstown Lake Wakatip to the beautiful town of Arrow, the complete journey can be said to be full!
It was found in advance that the road from Queenstown to Arrowtown would pass by a lavender farm, so I planned to visit it when I passed by. Google map search Ben Lomond Lavender Farm. Drive to the farm and find no one at all! The scenery of the farm is beautiful! So he and his parents quickly took pictures of the scenery and portraits, hoping not to disturb the farmer. If you drive yourself, you should stop for a short time again.
The trail offers visitors the opportunity to embrace ecology and get close to nature.
