Did you know?

Cromwell is located in one of New Zealand's fastest developing wine-growing areas. The nearby Kawarau River has several sites, as its journeys from Queenstown, that featured in the Lord of the Rings films. One of the most famous of these sites is the "Pillars of the Kings" (the "Argonath"). The river also enjoys a reputation for thrill-seeker activities including jet boating, white water rafting, river surfing and riverboarding, and bungy jumping.
