Discover Middle Earth on the flagship flight of Heli Glenorchy, soaring high over a remote high-country station towards towering Mt Earnslaw. Experience a close-range flyover of the breathtaking "hanging" Earnslaw Glacier before touching down in the lower basin to enjoy this incredible spot.
Prepare for a sense of excitement and awe to wash over you on this 45-minute helicopter flight over the peaks of the world-renowned Mt Earnshaw Glacier, If you've ever dreamt about the possibility of experiencing the beauty of the glaciers from above, that dream is becoming a reality. Departing from Glenorchy and flying above the aptly named Paradise, you will be subject to no shortage of breathtaking views from your prime position in the sky. The snowy peaks seem to stretch on forever, and the bright blue of the glacier offers a stark contrast against the white landscape, so much so that, at times, it is difficult to believe that such a beautiful place exists on earth.

We know the trust consumers place in ratings and reviews is tied directly to authenticity. That’s why we use Bazaarvoice. We believe that reviews should represent the genuine, unbiased, and transparent opinion about the author’s experience with a product or service. Reviews are not altered in any way by anyone other than the original author — including corrections for spelling or grammar. Reviews are not filtered, edited, or deleted simply because they are negative or are lower-rated.
