Mount Cook

Original AJHacket Bungy

We couldn't leave Queenstown without a visit to the home of the Bungy jump, which is set on the Kawarau river about 15 km outside. Sadly as we arrived at 4:30 in the afternoon, the jump had just closed so we were unable to live the experience! (shame).We did enjoy looking at the gorge from the bridge though, it is  spectacular.
The next couple of days were spent driving through the remote hilly region of Northern Otago and Southern Canterbury, via Mount Cook, NZ's highest peak, and staying in towns such as Cromwell, Omarama and Fairlie until we reached the East coast at Timaru.
