Queenstown Mayor Jim Boult is gearing up to welcome Alert Level 2 and easing of travel restrictions with an iconic Kiwi activity to start to the morning - a Bungy Jump.
Queenstown Lakes has been one of the hardest hit regions in the country with thousands of people seeking welfare support since late March.
Boult hopes domestic tourism will help the resort town begin to bounce back.
Tourism reporter Tess Brunton is at AJ Hackett Bungy at Kawarau Bridge near Queenstown where Boult is preparing to jump.
