<p>Queenstown is the stunning setting for this GeoComputation conference, nestled in the Southern Alps of New Zealand on the shores of Lake Wakatipu.
<span style="font-family:Calibri,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size:16px; background-color:rgb(255,255,255)">
It is a popular base for all sorts of outdoor recreation: walking (locally, “tramping”), biking and at this time of year, the late ski season. It is also the “adventure capital of the world” for those after bungee jumping and white water rafting thrills.</span></p>

Rydges Lakeland Resort Hotel</a> will be hosting the conference, where a block of rooms has also been reserved for conference delegates to book. There are plenty of alternative
<strong>accommodation</strong> options too, as the conference is 5 minutes walk away from the town centre.
<strong>Travel</strong>-wise, Queenstown is accessible, having direct air links to the main international airport hubs of Christchurch and Auckland as well as major Australian cities. There are also good road links from Christchurch, with a daily bus service. <br>
