Description

Discover Middle Earth on our flagship flight as we soar over a remote high-country station towards towering Mt Earnslaw. Experience a close-range flyover of the breathtaking “hanging” Earnslaw Glacier before touching down in the lower basin to enjoy this incredible spot. If one landing isn’t enough, upgrade your flight and add on a second landing! Add on an Alpine Landing and enjoy panoramic views of the Dart River and Lake Whakatipu. Adult – $120 per person Child – $120 per person Trip duration – 60 minutes Glacier Landing Adult – $225 per person Child – $225 per person Trip duration – 70 minutes *In winter months (June – August) the Earnslaw Burn does not have as many fast flowing waterfalls compared to our spring and summer months (September – March). It is still a stunning and magical location to visit during winter as there is usually extra snow coverage on the glacier and throughout the valley.

Includes

45-minute duration 1 Earnslaw Burn Basin landing Capture the breathtaking 'hanging' Glacier
