Heli-Skiing With Heli Tours In Queenstown

Advanced skiers from all around the world come to the Queenstown region every ski season for the thrill, rush and heart pumping exhilaration of free-skiing the Southern Alps and Mount Aspiring National Park in Wanaka, located in the South Island of New Zealand. Heli-skiing is off-trail, back country, downhill skiing that is accessed by a helicopter, not a ski lift or snow mobile, and represents freedom and exhilarating adventure for skiers and boarders. There are no crowds or lines like at a ski resort, but rather untouched pristine natural snow and long steep runs. Wanaka's Mount Aspiring National Park and the Southern Lakes mountainous terrain offers an assortment of open bowls and valleys to steep chutes and faces.

 

The major risk and primary safety concern of heli-skiing operators is the danger of avalanches and all reputable heli-ski operations will employ guides and pilots who are professionally trained and well experienced in evaluating snow conditions, snow stability, and risk management, and this is why so many heli-skiers use Heli Tours.

 

Heli Tours allow skiers to  travel in style, enjoying a short flight to their ski field of choice to beat the crowds with no hassles, no traffic and no worries. They have the latest edition carbon fibre cargo pods to accommodate ski’s and boards, and all flights depart Queenstown airport with drop-off at the base buildings. Pickup’s are also available.
