For clients seeking a deep connection with the stunning Te Tai Poutini (West Coast), the Glacier Overnighter is a game-changer. This immersive adventure offers an overnight stay on the glacier, combining the thrill of heli-hiking with the serenity of a remote alpine environment.

Guests will experience a scenic flight and time on the ice before experiencing a stunning sunset over the Tasman Sea. Following an afternoon of discovery, return to camp where you can unwind with refreshing beverages and nibbles. Your guide will set up your alpine tent and prepare a delicious dinner, allowing you to relax and soak in the incredible surroundings.

As the sun sets, the magic continues, you will witness the alpine landscape transform before your eyes, from misty clouds rolling in, to on a clear night enjoying a stargazing experience under some of the clearest skies in the world. In the morning you’ll wake with the crisp mountain air and enjoy light refreshments before flying off the glacier and heading to Te Waonui Forest Retreat for a delicious breakfast.

This is truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience for intrepid explorers.
