Quinstown was very interesting; Before 1962 the only way to get there was by boat. Now anyway you want is available. I had a feeling that the whole South Island of NZ is facilitated only for tourists (hotels, motels, and crazy things to do for those who have the courage)- it is very hard to imagine people living there full time. Anyway, in Quinstown we experienced Skyline Gondola ride and then did a long walk on Ben LomondTrack (1748 m). Not far from Quinstown is Glenorchy, with a lot of opportunities for walking, viewing a waterfalls and the amazing Valleys and lake.
Seeing and experiencing nature so close gives you a peace with yourself and the world. It seems like everything and everybody has their own place, the right one.
For these who do not know, The movie the Lord of the Ring was made in NZ. We were lucky to see some of these places and they are really beautiful. Skippper Canyon was one of them; there is a very narrow curly road and driving can be quite dangerous. Most of the car rentals companies do not offer insurance for that area. To experience it we had to take a off road tour. Quite exiting.
