Swap #Mt Roy for Coromandel Peak and get “that shot”
Tuesday, October 31st, 2017
When Wanaka’s popular Mt Roy walking track closes to hikers for the lambing season there are a lot of disappointed visitors. If you have your heart set on getting a photo of ‘that view’ don’t despair we can help.
In fact we have a far better option than slogging it out up a farm track anyway – and that’s to take a scenic helicopter ride instead.
During the closed period we can offer our “Lake Wanaka Scenic flight” with a landing on Coromandel Peak for $235 per person (minimum 2). This includes a 10min flight and 10min on location to capture that shot.
Coromandel Peak is privately owned and a popular wedding destination so is regularly booked for exclusive use. Therefore we recommend taking your scenic flight in the morning.
Then if you’re still looking for a hiking option with stunning views we can recommend “Rocky Hill and Diamond Lake” a great loop track (approx 3hr return) just 5min down the road, with gorgeous 360 degree views from the top.
Feel free to email us info@aspiringhelicopters.co.nz if you want to get yourself in the picture.

Flying the flag for Wanaka’s newest luxury lodge
Saturday, October 21st, 2017
Wanaka finally has a new unique luxury accommodation that sits comfortably with the big names in New Zealand.
Mahu Whenua is a beautiful lodge situated on stunning grounds with breathtaking views over Lake Wanaka. The secluded lodge offers all the normal luxuries associated with a high end property – including easy helicopter access! Great for guests and for us…
We are literally just-around-the-corner so we’re perfectly placed to zip up and collect guests direct from the front lawn for a private personalised scenic flight.
As the flight path from Wanaka to Milford Sound is so spectacular this is by far the best starting point … we can then incorporate a visit to the West Coast and the spectacular glaciers of the Southern Alps and top it off with a relaxing exclusive lunch stop at the Whare Kea Chalet!
We’re also pleased to be working closely with property managers Major Domo to provide some great exclusive heli-based activities on and around the property. From Ridge-top canapés to Winery visits, the options are ‘almost’ endless.
