I had a great time sport climbing in Wanaka on what was originally meant to be a ski trip last month. There's heaps of easily accessible, good quality stuff to do, with crags for pretty much any type of weather. The location is beautiful too. Another thing that looked stunning, although we didn't get round to climbing it, is the Sundial near Queenstown.

At the risk of hijacking the thread, does anyone also have any tips for must-do, easy-ish alpine stuff on the south island? Ideally stuff that doesn't require helicopter access and is mostly rock based. The Bowen-Allen corner and the north buttress of Sabre Peak are good examples of the sort of things we're after. Some stuff further east could be handy too, in case the weather is crap in the Darrans.

Cheers!
