Aoraki Mount Cook is New Zealand's highest mountain, with a height of 3,754 metres (12,316 ft) above sea level. It used to be the world's 37th most prominent mountain standing, until the eastern face of its northern peak fell off in 1991. An exceptionally beautiful place to visit with sky scraping peaks, glaciers and permanent snow fields. The Mt Cook National Park is abundant in walking tracks, with walking trails leaving Mount Cook Village taking anywhere between 10 minutes and 4 hours. There are also day tramps to some of the area's alpine huts, and for the more experienced, mountain climbing is widely popular. Activities during winter include ski excursions to New Zealand's longest glacier, the Tasman, and there is boating on the Tasman Lake. Scenic flights are also a stunning attraction around this whole Southern Alps area and there are flights to take you up the Tasman Glacier and land to enjoy a unique opportunity to get on the ice.
These memorable flights are all geared to provide you the greatest possible experience! They go above and above to show you around this beautiful location. Based at Aoraki/Mt Cook airport Heliworks Mt Cook offers spectacular scenic flights throughout the Aoraki/Mt Cook National Park.
