Please note that, outside Auckland, New Zealand returned to Alert Level 1 from Tuesday 22 September. To find out what this means for the pools you can read an email we sent the day before to all our members and visit pass holders here.
QLDC Sport and Recreation operates three aquatic facilities on behalf of our local community. Click each link for more info:
- Alpine Aqualand at Queenstown Events Centre
We offer a variety of aquatic programmes at these facilities including Aquafit, Tri Squad and Ante-Natal Fitness.
