Eighth edition 2020-2021 E: [email protected] Arrowtown is a quaint heritage village enveloped by beautiful mountain scenery – only 20 minutes from Queenstown. As gold ran out, the town became a fading rural backwater. With no pressure to replace the old, it kept its heritage heart, so It’s standout is its famous high street.

Many were Chinese, who built a separate village. 2 3 A Four Hour Short Visit – Your “Must do’s” Short Visit “Must do’s” Visit Short “Must do’s” Visit Short
