Gibbston
Gibbston is a community in the Wakatipu Basin in the Otago region of the South Island, New Zealand. Through the valley runs the Kawarau River which forms the Kawarau Gorge. The most visible aspect of the area are the vineyards and wineries next to which form part of the Central Otago wine region.

It was voted community of the year in 2011 due to the work on the Gibbston River Trail.
