What you can expect

Experience the thrill of a 10,000ft tandem skydive over Aoraki Mount Cook National Park and the iconic Mackenzie Country. Begin your adventure at the charming Pukaki Airport near Twizel, where the peak of Mount Cook looms in the distance. As you ascend in the scenic aircraft, soak in the breathtaking views of the Mackenzie basin before reaching 10,000ft.

With Skydive Mt Cook, this skydiving experience offers a heart-pounding 30 seconds of freefall, where the South Island landscapes unfold beneath you. The moment the parachute deploys, feel a wave of relief as you glide over the stunning vistas of Mount Cook, Lake Tekapo, and the Southern Alps.
