What you can expect

Experience a sunrise like no other on a winter scenic flight over Mt Aspiring & The Glaciers with Glenorchy Air. This is the best scenic flight Queenstown has to offer if you are short on time or want to make the most of a day in Queenstown.

The 1.25 hour Sunrise Scenic Flight departs every morning from Queenstown Airport throughout the winter season. As you fly across Mt Aspiring National Park, discover some of the closest glaciers to Queenstown, such as the Olivine Ice Plateau, Passchendaele Icefall and the Bonar Glacier. Watch as the day breaks with views of Mt Aspiring, one of the highest mountains in New Zealand. This is sure to be the most spectacular sunrise you’ll ever see!

With soft morning colours and a sense of calm, this Mt Aspiring scenic flight reveals some truly awe-inspiring New Zealand scenery. Have your cameras ready to capture views of the Barrier Range and Arawhata River, both secret treasures in Mt Aspiring National Park. Best of all, you’ll get to experience sunrise and a Queenstown glacier tour from the comfort of your window seat.
