High: 24 Low: 11From the 1860s until recently, Skippers Canyon was the very centre of gold mining activity in the Queenstown region—historical sites still exist today.
Known in adventure circles as 'Skippers Grand Canyon' the area encompasses 20 acres and is home to the AJ Hackett bungy, the Pipeline Bungy, Skippers Flying Fox, Winky's Museum, Nomad Safaris, Skippers Canyon Jet and the Pipeline Walkway.
You can also see a number of original gold mining workings that are progressively being restored. Hand carved out of solid rock, the Skippers Road is an adventure in itself...don't look down!
