89-year old Kiwi has a good time zipping above Queenstown

Monday, 14 March 2011 00:14

Proving that you’re never too old to experience Queenstown’s premier flying-fox adventure, 89-year old Raby (Rae) Oxenham from Tauranga, Bay of Plenty hitched up to Ziptrek Ecotour’s Moa Tour (Wednesday 9 March) for a zip through the trees high above Queenstown.

Rae loved the treetop tour saying she particularly enjoyed the spectacular view out to The Remarkables and Lake Wakatipu.

Ziptrek Ecotours Director Trent Yeo said the company was delighted to welcome Mrs Oxenham as one of the company’s most senior guest to date.

“The four-line Moa Tour is perfectly suited for elder or younger zippers looking for an exhilarating new view of Queenstown.”
