Mist clings to jagged peaks as the helicopter lifts you over the Upper Wilkin Valley, unveiling a wild world of alpine rivers and hidden lakes. The air is fresh, the landscape untouched, and every step ahead promises a new horizon with timeless views. This is the Mount Aspiring National Park in its purest form, waiting to challenge and enchant.
Over four days, you’ll climb through Snow Bridge Gorge to Waterfall Flat, tackle the thrilling Waterfall Face with ropes for safety, and cross the majestic Rabbit Pass itself. Descents into the East Matukituki Valley reveal serene river valleys and towering faces of Fastness Peak and Mount Aspiring, while stops at Ruth Flat, Junction Flat, and Hester Pinney Falls offer moments of awe and reflection. Wet river crossings and rugged tracks ensure the journey is as demanding as it is unforgettable.
Accommodation in wilderness huts beneath star-strewn skies, with gear available if needed. Walk across glaciers, rivers, and alpine ridges, and emerge at the Matukituki River, having experienced an intimate, raw encounter with New Zealand’s high country.
