The morning sun over Queenstown. 🤩 The Shotover River is the second richest gold-bearing river in the world. Gold was first discovered here in 1862, and some mining is still carried out today. Stretching 75 km long, the river flows from the Southern Alps before joining the Kawarau River. This scenic icon has a rich story to tell.
