Wanaka Helicopter Snow Experience – 25 Minutes
Highlights & inclusions
What you can expect
See Wanaka from a new perspective on a scenic helicopter flight over the Southern Alps. Departing from Wanaka Airport, just 10 minutes from town, this 25-minute adventure offers sweeping views across Lake Wanaka, Roy Peak and the vast wilderness of Mount Aspiring National Park.
Climb high above the township and land on Mt Alpha, an alpine peak standing 1,200 metres above sea level. Step out onto the mountain for panoramic views of the lake, surrounding valleys and distant glaciers. Your pilot will share local insights as you take in the dramatic landscape from this unique vantage point.
This short but spectacular Wanaka flight is ideal for travellers wanting a true taste of the Southern Alps without spending a full day in the air. Operated by Wanaka Helicopters, this experience is perfect for families, couples or anyone seeking an unforgettable view of one of New Zealand’s most beautiful regions.
