Alpine Recreation - Snowshoeing and New Track

Strap on some snowshoes and explore the white world of the high country!

 

Snowshoeing - Lake Tekapo High Country

 

Why hang up your tramping boots in winter? What better way to escape the city than to strap on some snowshoes and explore the transformed white world of our high country. Go with a guide, who will lead you along ridges, up peaks for grand views of the Southern Alps and along giggling mountain streams, decorated with amazing ice formations. Each day the refreshment of the exercise is capped off with relaxation beside a warm fire in a cosy mountain hut, with meals cooked for you.

 

Aoraki Mt Cook Trek

 

Himalayan proportions at your doorstep! Confront the mighty Caroline Face of Aoraki Mount Cook while climbing high above the Tasman Glacier to the private Caroline Hut. This is a special place in the topuni area of the national park, an area sacred to the Ngai Tahu tribe of New Zealand's South Island. It's no wonder, because you can't help but be awed by being so close to such a powerful mountain. One night is spent in the cosy mountain hut, a fantastic vantage point for keen photographers to capture the magic morning and evening lights on Aoraki and Mount Tasman. You need to have previous overnight tramping experience and be good on you feet.
