Mt Cook 20 minute Scenic Helicopter Flight

Mount Cook (Aoraki) is the highest peak in the Southern Alps mountain range, so it is quite easy to spot from the ground; however, for those who want to get up close and personal to this amazing goliath, there's one method that ensures you will get the best views from a totally unique angle. The Helicopter Line offer breathtaking scenic flights of this phenomenal alpine region and even give you the option of touching the snow for yourself!

From their Mount Cook base out of Glentanner Park – only 15 minutes’ drive from the Aoraki/Mount Cook Village – you will depart on a spectacular flight of your choice. From within the comfortable, roomy cabin of a European AS355 Twin Engine Squirrel or an AS350 Squirrel helicopter, you will be awestruck at the view that unfolds below you, as you take in the best of New Zealand's national parks, lakes, mountains and glaciers with a birds-eye view.

The Helicopter Line is proud to hold the highest level of Civil Aviation Authority certification for scenic helicopter operations. This means that regular monitoring and auditing of all aspects of their operations occur, ensuring your safety is the highest priority.
