Take a truly "remarkable" scenic flight over the Remarkables Mountain Range with Heliworks Queenstown!
Trust us, Queenstown looks much different from up here. Enjoy the spectacular landscape of Lake Whakatipu and the surrounding mountains from our landing point on top of The Remarkables.
One of only two mountain ranges in the world to run directly North-South, and spectacular to boot, The Remarkables is aptly named. This excursion takes you over the winding Shotover and Kawarau rivers and up to this dramatic mountain range for our landing โ and if youโre flying in winter we may even land in the snow!
Take in the beauty of Lake Whakatipu, Queenstown and the surrounding mountains (and definitely take some photographs) before we head back to base.

Queenstown must-do @ least once!
The good Absolutely thrilling for us as first timers. What a ride! The service is stellar from comms, safety briefing, waiting areas, staff- pilots, receptionists. Shout out to pilot Craig-good guy, with so much experience and local knowledge๐๐ฝ Totally trusted his skills. We also had pilot Duncan on board ๐๐ฝ We had a bit of wind which means pilots land in safest spots they determine. We had 2 landings, one in fresh snow (in late Oct)- so special and then in tussock, overlooking former goldmining area. Great to see the efforts of planting native trees up close, and the regeneration of natives trees. The bad This activity is totally weather dependent. Trust them if you can't fly, or land where you'd hoped. The ugly Having to weigh yourself- again for safety but it's discreet. Having to wait another year for next trip to do it all again! That I can't rate this higher than 5 stars๐๐ฝ
