... IN THE HIGH COUNTRY

The mountains of Arthur's Pass National Park provide a magnificent  backdrop to the superb food and wine we offer in our Mt Rolleston restaurant. We offer a "table of the house" menu for our evening meal and  this changes every night. Our menu offers 2 choices and a vegetarian option is also available. 
 

Our Own Wilderness Lodge Lamb....

 

Enjoy our own Wilderness Lodge lamb  and a selection of the best of New Zealand's fish, meats, fruit and vegetables. Join other guests from around the world for dinner or if you prefer, dine at your own table.
