Description
Milford Sound scenic flights from Queenstown are popular but the secret is a flight from Wanaka is more spectacular! Why? Because your flight path follows the spine of the Southern Alps with a myriad of snow-capped peaks and glaciers to see along the way. Another bonus; on this flight we stop for a 10min landing on one of those glaciers for a unique photo opportunity. You’ll get to tick off two UNESCO National Parks – Mt Aspiring and Fiordland – on this one flight. Take to the skies like an Eagle and appreciate a birds-eye-view of dramatic and diverse “Lord of the Rings” inspired landscapes. Fly through rugged mountain peaks, over deep glacier carved valleys above the Southern Alps and into Fiordland National Park. We will land and shutdown at Milford Sound for a short nature walk and photo opportunity with Mitre Peak. On the return leg of your journey we will land on a glacier for another photo opportunity.Includes
