Known in M膩ori as ‘Aoraki’, Mount Cook is the highest mountain in the continent of Australasia. The National Park which surrounds the peak is certainly one of New Zealand’s most spectacular, with more than one third covered in permanent snow and glacial ice.

You can get up as far as Mount Cook village by road, from where air safaris, trekking, 4x4 tours and dinghy cruises set out for the dripping ice faces of advancing glaciers.

Walks and treks

Walking in the Mount Cook National ParkMount Cook National Park is yet another of New Zealand’s havens for walkers. There are paths here to please gentle day walkers, as well as challenging hikes that require specific mountaineering experience.

There are ten short walks leading from Mount Cook Village with two of the most popular being the trail to Kea Point (two hours return) and the walk over the swing bridges and up to the Hooker Valley (four hours return).

Maps and information are available from the Department of Conservation visitors' center in Mount Cook Village, and in the summer guides can be arranged for the more tricky paths.
