• Bottom of Coronet Peak access Rd, 5 mins past the hour

Getting to Coronet Peak is easy; we’re the closest mountain to Queenstown and with a fully sealed road. We are only 16kms/20 mins from central Queenstown.

The first Bike Shuttle of the day departs from central Queenstown at 10am from 9 Duke St. This is a one-way shuttle so if you intend to return to central Queenstown you will need to ride back from the bottom of Coronet Peak. A separate bus service that can facilitate bikes is available from Arthurs Point.

Queenstown Bike Taxis provide transport from central Queenstown and Arrowtown to Coronet Peak's Base Building. 

Queenstown weather can sometimes give us all four seasons in one day so it is important that you are prepared for an alpine environment.  Please note there are no trees for shelter from the elements up here. 

We recommend you have sturdy footwear, and bring sunblock, hats, and extra layers as it can get cold on the summit. And of course, don't forget your camera to capture the epic views! 

Forgot the sunscreen?! Punctured your tire? Don't panic, our retail area will have everything to keep you covered. 

If you're on your bike, please ensure you're wearing a quality helmet and dress appropriately with knee and elbow pads.
