What you can expect

Find yourself in a winter wonderland at any time of year on the 30-minute Queenstown helicopter flight with a snow landing. The perfect blend of adventure and sightseeing, this Heliworks Queenstown helicopter tour allows you to leave footsteps on top of a snowy mountain, whether it's winter or summer. An alpine snow landing in Queenstown is perfect for visitors seeking out a quintessential Queenstown snow experience with spectacular photo opportunites.

Your 30-minute Queenstown helicopter flight and snow landing adventure begins with a scenic flight over the historic Skippers Canyon, known for its rich gold mining heritage. Enjoy fantastic views over Queenstown and The Remarkables mountain range, showcasing some of the region's best landscapes from above. The highlight of this helicopter flight is the alpine snow landing above Queenstown. Your Queenstown Heliworks pilot will expertly set down the helicopter amidst the snow-capped peaks, offering you a chance to step out of the helicopter, take photos and, if you're feeling playful, take part in a snowball fight or make snow angels.

After your time in the snow, your Queenstown helicopter landing and snow landing experience returns back to Queenstown over the beautiful Wakatipu basin, concluding your 30-minute tour. Whether you're a photography enthusiast, an adventure seeker, or simply wanting to encounter Queenstown's snow up close, the snow landing helicopter flight with Heliworks Queenstown is an unforgettable adventure that captures the essence of Queenstown's alpine scenery.
