The Remarkables
If these mountains don't have the coolest name ever, then I don't know what does!
The mountains border the lake in Queenstown, but right before they dip into the deep water, a gentle dollop of green hills present themselves. They are those soft kind of New Zealand hills - the kind that look like you could just take a giant thumb and mush them around into one shape or another.

Those New Zealanders are pretty clever about naming their mountains - far more interesting than "The Rockies" !
