Milford Sound Helicopter Flight with Landings & Transfers
Highlights & inclusions
What you can expect
Lift off from Queenstown for a breathtaking 90-minute Milford Sound helicopter flight that showcases the very best of Fiordland’s mountains, lakes and fiords. As you climb over Lake Wakatipu and the rugged Richardson Mountains, you’ll enjoy sweeping views on the way towards the dramatic cliffs and dark waters of Milford Sound and iconic Mitre Peak, with complimentary return transport from Queenstown.
Your pilot traces a scenic route through the Hollyford Valley and surrounding ranges before touching down at an alpine landing site in Fiordland National Park. Step out onto the mountainside, feel the crisp air and take in the silence, broken only by distant waterfalls. Back in the air, you’ll continue on to Earnslaw Burn for a second landing beneath hanging glaciers and tumbling falls, with plenty of time for photos. This extended Milford Sound scenic flight is an unforgettable way to experience New Zealand’s most famous fiord from the air, with two alpine landings adding to the adventure.
