Hike and explore the 'white ice' of New Zealand's longest glacier at Aoraki Mount Cook. Heli-hiking on the Tasman Glacier offers easy access to the realm of the mountaineer.
With your mountain guide, you will fly high onto the “white ice” of New Zealand's longest and largest glacier – the mighty Tasman (Huapapa).
We meet at Mount Cook Airport , provide a safety briefing, and check equipment - then embark on a thrilling helicopter flight into the mountains. An Amazing Landscape of Ice
This guided interpretative trek is on an amazing landscape of fluted ice, runnels, moulins, and sinuous winding streamlets. You will explore the gently undulating terrain, as your crampons bite into ancient ice. The highest peaks of the Southern Alps, Aoraki Mount Cook and Mount Tasman, tower above.
Your helicopter returns you safely to Mt Cook Airport, flying close to the massive 1,000-metre-high (3,200 feet) Hochstetter Icefall to finish your incredible adventure. Payment
We require credit card details to confirm a reservation. Because the Helihike is weather-dependent, your credit card will not be charged until the day of the activity. Our Booking Terms and Conditions
