Rydges Lakeland Resort Queenstown believes in the preservation of the local district and community to ensure the longevity and sustainability that encompasses the tourism market.

Activity Hanmer is committed to running a sustainable business. Our vision to minimise our environmental impact and maximise environmental benefits through our programmes ensures that sound environmental principals underpin all aspects of our operation.

Our business is committed to improving environmental performance across all areas of our business.
