Overlooking the mighty Wakatipu Basin, hikers and photographers won’t be disappointed with the panoramic view as our helicopter lands at the 1731m summit of Crown Peak. Enjoy the remote alpine setting as our hiking adventure takes us down through hills of golden tussock and into the hidden goldmining gorges below. With around 1000m of decent over 10km be prepared to be hiking for approximately 3-4 hours whilst your guide provides you with insightful commentary on the local Maori and goldmining legends, as well as the unique flora and fauna of the high country tundra. Our hike finishes in Arrowtown where we can explore the old gold mining communities further or quench our thirst at the local pub!
