- Cover photo description:
- Wanaka is a popular ski and summer resort town in the Otago region of the South Island of New Zealand. At the southern end of Lake WÄnaka, it is at the start of the Clutha River and is the gateway to Mount Aspiring National Park. Wanaka is primarily a resort town with both summer and winter seasons. Its economy is based on the many outdoor opportunities this offers. Historically, MÄori visited the Wanaka area to hunt and fish in summer, or on their way to seek pounamu greenstone on the West Coast. NgÄi Tahu abandoned their seasonal camps after a raid by a North Island war party in 1836. The current town was founded during the gold rush of the 19th century.
