Explore the captivating history of Queenstown, New Zealand, from its early Maori heritage and pivotal gold rush era to its transformation into the world's adventure capital. Discover key historical milestones in this detailed timeline. WELCOME TO Q ueenstown Tāhuna BOOK ACTIVITIES < Queenstown Home The Historical Journey of Queenstown: From Māori Trails to Adventure Capital Early Beginnings and Maori Heritage (1200 AD - 1850s) 1200 AD: Polynesians were the first to explore the Queenstown area, primarily for hunting. The cold climate discouraged permanent settlement. Later Centuries: Maori from the West Coast traveled to Queenstown in search of pounamu (greenstone), a precious resource used for tools and ornaments. The area was known as Tāhuna, translating to "shallow bay." 1856: The first European glimpse of Lake Wakatipu was by Scotsman Nathanael Chalmers, guided by Reko, a Maori chief. Settlement and Development (1860 - 1869) 1860: William Gilbert Rees and Nicholas von Tunzelmann were the first Europeans to settle in the area. They navigated the challenging Crown Range, establishing farms and beginning a quiet pastoral life. 1862: The discovery of alluvial gold in the Arrow River by Jack Tewa, a Maori shepherd, sparked a significant gold rush, attracting miners from as far as Australia and California. Queenstown quickly evolved from a shanty town on Rees' farm to a bustling center of activity. The Gold Rush Impact (1862 - 1870s) Early 1860s: The gold rush led to the construction of infrastructure such as the Queen’s Arms Hotel, which later became Eichardt’s Hotel. 1864: As the gold supply dwindled, miners moved on to the West Coast, prompting the government to invite Chinese miners to the Otago goldfields, who significantly contributed to the local economy through various trades. Expansion and Tourism (1870s - 1940s) Mid-1870s: The development of hotels and the establishment of the Dunedin to Kingston railway facilitated the growth of tourism. Queenstown became a favored summer destination for hiking and relaxation. 1947: The Mount Cook Company introduced winter tourism by hiring a ski instructor and installing a tow rope at Coronet Peak, marking the beginning of Queenstown's winter sports scene. Modern Era and Adventure Tourism (1950s - Present) 1960: Commercial jet boat rides began, adding to the array of adventurous activities available. 1988: The launch of the world’s first commercial bungee jumping site by AJ Hackett and Henry Van Asch solidified Queenstown's reputation as the "Adventure Capital of the World." Post-1950s: Queenstown has seen exponential growth, now offering a wide range of activities that attract tourists year-round.

Discover the thrilling history and iconic bungy jumping in New Zealand, from AJ Hackett’s first jump to the world’s highest leaps in Queenstown and Auckland. Take the plunge and feel the adrenaline today! BUNGY JUMPING IN NEW ZEALAND AJ Hackett and the Thrilling Legacy of Bungy Jumping in New Zealand If you're looking for an adrenaline-packed experience that defies gravity and common sense, then you’ve come to the right place. New Zealand’s bungy jumping is the ultimate thrill, and it all began with the one and only AJ Hackett, a legend in the world of extreme sports. The birthplace of this heart-stopping adventure is right here in New Zealand, and it’s waiting for you to take the plunge! The Birth of Bungy Jumping in New Zealand In 1986, a fearless carpenter-turned-adventurer, AJ Hackett, made history by taking a leap of faith from Auckland’s Greenhithe Bridge. His inspiration? The traditional land diving rituals of Pentecost Island in Vanuatu, as well as the antics of the Oxford University Dangerous Sports Club. But AJ wasn’t just about trying something wild – he was about making it accessible to everyone. His first daring jump in 1986 wasn’t enough. AJ went on to defy the rules again in 1987 with an unforgettable (and, let's say, illegal) bungy from the Eiffel Tower in Paris. While the stunt landed him in a bit of trouble with the authorities, it did wonders for bungy’s global fame. Fast forward to 1988, and AJ, alongside business partner Henry van Asch, launched the world’s first commercial bungy operation at the iconic Kawarau Bridge in Queenstown. This was no ordinary jump; for just $75, adventurers could take a thrilling 43-meter dive into the depths of the Kawarau River, and just like that, New Zealand became the hub of adventure tourism. Must-Experience Bungy Jumps in New Zealand New Zealand has a smorgasbord of bungy jumps for every level of daredevil. Whether you’re a first-timer or a seasoned pro, there’s a spot that’ll make your heart race and your palms sweat. Kawarau Bridge Bungy The original bungy site, nestled in the scenic Queenstown, is the perfect starting point. Jumping 43 meters into the Kawarau River, you’ll feel a surge of adrenaline unlike any other. It’s the place where the whole bungy craze began – so, if you’re looking to experience it the way AJ intended, this is the spot. Why You Should Take the Plunge Bungy jumping in New Zealand isn’t just about the thrill – it’s about stepping out of your comfort zone and embracing the spirit of adventure that AJ Hackett started all those years ago. There’s something magical about the moment before you leap, when your heart races and your mind wonders, "Am I really going to do this?" And then, you do it, and everything is just… perfect. That’s the magic of bungy. No matter which jump you choose, you’re not just making a memory – you’re becoming part of New Zealand’s rich adventure history. So, what are you waiting for? Embrace the challenge, take a deep breath, and book your bungy jump today. After all, life’s too short to keep your feet on the ground!
