The Remarkables

The weather was mint the first few days in Queenstown, so on our second day there we decided to head up the Remarkables mountain range. Mum quickly regretted this idea as vertigo soon kicked in, but the views were spectacular. The Remarkables are really that by name and nature, being very distinctive with jagged peaks, and one of only two ranges which run directly north to south. They’re about 2340 metres tall (just shy of 8000 ft) and we managed to get a good two thirds of the way up on the ski-field unsealed road.
