Mount Cook Mackenzie

Aoraki/Mt-Cook-Mackenzie

From the folklore around this region’s historic Church of the Good Shepherd to the magnificence of Mount Cook National Park, Mackenzie Country truly takes your breath away. Remarkable turquoise lakes, emerald green valleys, snow-capped mountains and glaciers all contribute to an experience you will never forget.

Join the many kiwis who get involved in this dramatic landscape by hiking their way around the region. From easy half hour walks to hikes of several days into the spectacular backcountry – including the Hooker Valley, with dramatic views to New Zealand’s highest mountain, Aoraki Mount Cook. Half-day cruises, only on offer in summer, offer up-close encounter with icebergs; travelling by helicopter you can experience a ‘snow landing’!

A unique opportunity in this magical area is rediscovering silence. The Mackenzie Country is recognised as having the most spectacular night sky in New Zealand so take time to delight in the expanse of the southern night sky through telescopes at Mt John Observatory.
