About This Experience
Take off from Queenstown on an unforgettable journey through some of the South Island’s most spectacular alpine landscapes. Soar above the rugged cliffs of Skippers Canyon and the braided rivers of the Rees Valley before venturing deep into Mt Aspiring National Park.
Marvel at dramatic glaciers, impressive ice falls and hidden alpine lakes before continuing to the awe-inspiring Earnslaw Burn. Here, a unique ‘hanging’ glacier feeds countless waterfalls that tumble into the valley below – an otherworldly scene made famous in The Lord of the Rings.
Your adventure includes an exhilarating glacier*, where you’ll step out into untouched wilderness to capture once-in-a-lifetime photos surrounded by towering peaks and pristine ice.
This remarkable flight offers the perfect combination of natural beauty, cinematic views, and thrilling alpine adventure. A true highlight of any Queenstown visit.
