    Queenstown Airport and the Remarkables Station National Trust are teaming up to restore native biodiversity

    Queenstown Airport and the Remarkables Station National Trust are teaming up to restore native biodiversity


    The partnership between the two organisations focuses on Remarkables Station - nestled between the mountains and Lake Whakatipu.

    It is currently leased as a working deer, cattle, and sheep farm.

    The aim is to eradicate a sycamore tree infestation, allowing native plants to regenerate over the coming decade.

    Queenstown Airport's Sara Irvine says the Remarkables are the first thing passengers see when they step off a plane.
