Introduction
Deer Park Heights on Peninsula Hill across from Queenstown is an open viewing farm and nature park. Drive through hillside pastures to feed and meet fallow deer, alpacas, goats and highland cattle while overlooking Lake Wakatipu and the town; scenes from 'The Lord of the Rings' were filmed here, and the summit lookout is superb for lake-and-mountain shots.
