The Kepler Track is one of New Zealand’s 10 Great Walks. From tussock-covered ridgelines, alpine vistas to crystal clear lakes and lush beech forests. A 60-kilometre track that can be completed in three or four days. You will start your hike a little differently.
- Your tour starts with a helicopter ride over Lake Te Anau
- A half-day tour which can be guided or unguided
- Marvel at incredible views of the Kepler Mountains
- Hike through an ancient rainforest with unique flora and fauna
Get “off the beaten” track with a helicopter ride over Fiordland National Park. Lifting off at Lake Te Anau, soaring over the wilderness and landing on a remote mountain top to begin your adventure. The 30-minute flight will provide you with a spectacular bird’s eye view of the pure beauty of New Zealand.
Your pioneer helicopter pilot has over 30 years of experience. Kim started sharing his love for flying and the natural surroundings of the South Island with others in 1986. A unique experience, and something you won’t forget in a hurry!
