Heli-ski Aoraki Mount Cook on a five-run day among New Zealand’s highest peaks. The 2026 price is NZD 1,795 per person, with a 09:00 check-in at the Alpine Guides base in Mount Cook Village. Flights depart from Mount Cook Airport or Glentanner Park depending on daily operations.
The Mount Cook region covers six mountain ranges with exclusive terrain in Aoraki Mount Cook National Park. The trip is designed for strong-intermediate and better skiers and snowboarders, with small groups of no more than four guests per guide. Runs average about 800 vertical metres, with some exceeding 1,000 metres.
Five guided runs access alpine bowls, open faces, glaciated terrain and steeper lines selected for the group and conditions. Guests should be reasonably fit and confident on strong-intermediate or more difficult resort terrain. Additional runs cost NZD 165 per person when weather, snow and time allow.
