The Mt Iron area is an established leafy suburb of Wanaka, located 5 minutes' drive from Wanaka's Town Center. Wanaka offers a wide variety of activities to do. You can take a lake cruise or a scenic helicopter flight, try your hand at heli-skiing, or fishing in many of the surrounding lakes and rivers. Alternatively, a walk to Rob Roy Glacier in the stunning Mt Aspiring National Park or walk with the locals up Mt Iron might be more your thing.
Dingleburn Safari and Puzzling World with its maze and illusion room offer further entertainment options for children, as does Wanaka's 2 quirky unique movie theaters. If it’s more of a relaxing holiday you’re after, picnics on the Clutha River or Lakefront or a wine tour of the local vineyards are all a stone’s throw away.
Wanaka's airport is 9km away & Queenstown's airport is only an hour’s drive via the stunning Crown Range. And of course, in winter, hit the slopes just a short drive away at the local ski fields: Cardrona, Treble Cone, or the Snow Farm. This beautifully appointed home really is a wonderful base for that perfect holiday/staycation or workcation!
Enter Wanaka on State Hwy 84 - take the second exit off the Anderson Road roundabout onto Anderson Rd - turn right into Wilkin Rd, left into Ragan Lane & left in Archilles Place
