Itinerary

Check-in to the Skytrek desk 30 minutes before your booked time. Our courtesy shuttle will drive you from town for a quick 20 minutes to our launch point on Coronet Peak. After putting on a helmet and harness, your pilot will give you a briefing and then it's launch time. Enjoy soaring like an eagle and taking in the pristine surrounds over-looking the Wakatipu valley. Landing is gentle and takes place on the valley floor. After a quick pack-up, we'll take you back into town.
