Bask in the beauty and serenity this area has to offer with these two incredible landing sites. This will be an unforgettable adventure!

This flight has been exclusively designed by Heliworks’ pilots to take you to our exclusive landing site – The Earnslaw Burn and then on to a second pilot’s choice alpine landing.

Depart Heliworks base through the Moonlight Saddle and over the Richardson Mountains to Mt Earnslaw and the mighty Earnslaw Burn.

Fly past the blue ice of the hanging glacier before descending to land on the valley floor, over 1,000 metres below! Enjoy the tranquillity of this breath-taking location before getting back in the helicopter to continue your adventure across Lake Wakatipu for a second landing.

Returning along the lake towards Queenstown itself and landing back at our hangar.

**Please take note that during the winter months the Earnslaw Burn does not have as many fast flowing waterfalls compared to the spring/summer/autumn months. This is still a stunning and magical location even in the winter months however we would like you to be aware of this.
