Roy's Peak is by far the most spectacular view in Wanaka. Allow 3.5 hours casual walking one way. If you are a hiker it will take you around 2.5 - 3 hours . I personally recommend taking walking poles! It can be tough on the knees coming down ;)

Warm Clothes in Winter
Winter in Wanaka is cold. If you come from a warmer climate, we recommend you purchase a goose down puffer jacket that will keep you warm outside. A beanie and gloves are also helpful so you can still enjoy a walk outside during the day.
