Fly over the Southern Alps to Mount Cook National Park from Queenstown for a legendary day amongst some of NZ's highest mountains! You'll heli ski or snowboard on five runs across six mountain ranges, with the longest being 4km in length and averaging 800 vertical metres.
The Aoraki Mount Cook National Park is home to some of the highest mountains and longest glaciers in the country, making it a haven for both skiers and snowboarders alike. Your day blanketed in snow begins with a scenic flight from Queenstown to Glentanner Airport, soaring above the surreal Southern Alps. Upon arrival, you will be run through a safety briefing before boarding the helicopter to some of NZ's highest helicopter landing areas. You'll board in groups of four per guide to ensure a safe and personalised experience. With over 200 runs across six mountain ranges, and with the longest runs being 4km in length averaging 800 vertical metres, there's terrain to suit all levels. Think cruisy power bowls and open faces to steep gnarly chutes. After completing five runs, you will descend back to Glentanner Airport and board the scenic flight back to Queenstown.
Please allow eight hours for this experience.

That’s 10% of the Australian population! When we started ‘doing’ experiences in 2001, Facebook didn’t exist; the iPod had just been invented; John Howard was Prime Minister; and Destiny's Child were popular (yikes!). We’ve been at this business of experiences for quite a while, so put your trust in us to show you a good time.
