Helicopter Hiking in Milford Sound & Fiordland
Fiordland National Park is a dramatic landscape of glacier-carved valleys, dense rainforests, and towering sheer granite peaks. A private helicopter hike allows you to reach remote ridgelines in minutes.
Why Choose Heli-Hiking?
Traditional multi-day Great Walks require 3 to 4 days of grueling trekking with heavy packs. Heli-hiking delivers immediate access to alpine ridgelines like the Gertrude Saddle or Kepler Track crests with a dedicated wilderness guide and daypack.
What to Expect On Your Hike
Departing from Queenstown or Te Anau, your aircraft soars over Lake Wakatipu before landing on high alpine meadows. Enjoy a 2 to 4 hour guided walk surrounded by hanging glaciers before a champagne lunch setup in the wilderness.
