Otago

Julian Knights is celebrating his 60th Birthday in February. He has asked his friends and family to honour his wishes of no gifts, instead he'd like to raise funds for a bench to be placed on the Queenstown Trail.

About us

The evolution of the Queenstown Trails Trust has been a realisation of a ten year vision, combined with the tenacity and passion of many individuals and organisation. The Trust was established in 2002 to assess interest for a network of Queenstown recreational trails. The next decade was spent working with key partners, the community, local and national government to establish The Queenstown Trail, proudly one of Nga Haerenga - The New Zealand Cycle Trail.

The role of the Trust is to facilitate the expansion and enhancement the trail network, protect future opportunities for access, increase use of the trails by residents and visitors, build the network’s national and international reputation and develop sustainable funding strategies for ongoing trail maintenance and improvements.

Use of funds

All funds raised will be donated to the Queenstown Trails Trust, who will arrange for the celebratory bench and plaque to be placed on the Trail in honour of Julian's 60th birthday.
