Description
Take in spectacular bird’s-eye views of the rugged mountains, waterfalls, and rainforests of the fiord on a Doubtful Sound scenic flight. Cruise through the air in a helicopter for 1 hour and 10 minutes.
Experience the stunning Fiordland National Park from the sky. Soar high above the Iris Burn Valley and Lake Manapouri, also known as the "Lake of Many Islands". Spot the infamous West Arm Power Station on Lake Manapouri before flying up and over the Wilmot Pass into Doubtful Sound.
This long and winding fiord is one of Fiordland’s deepest and is home to a number of stunning waterfalls. Your helicopter will detour into magical Campbell’s Kingdom, a beautiful hanging valley encompassing a lake and a waterfall. This is the stuff of fairytales.
From here, take a peek at Bradshaw Sound before soaring over the Main Divide of the Southern Alps for a second remote landing at scenic Mount Kidd. Make sure you have the camera or phone well charged for this flight — you’ll want to revisit the scenes and landscapes you visit over and over again.
Highlights
- Experience 2 remote alpine landings, one atop scenic Mount Kidd
- Enjoy stunning bird's-eye views of Doubtful Sound, the ‘Sound of Silence’
