Age no barrier for the rock!

Dave — Wed, 03 Mar 2010 03:42:58 +0000

Rupert & Dave have recently been up the Remarkables with slightly older clients (+50). Both trips were to climb the fantastic accessible alpine rock up there. If it’s been a while since you have been on the rock or wanting to step it up a notch in an alpine situation, the Remarkables is the perfect location for a day trip. The routes are generally of the long easy nature and get lots of sun at this time of year! Book your private trip on the alpine rock today (:

Heli hike or climb

chris — Thu, 17 Sep 2009 04:46:46 +0000

Utilise your time most efficiently to gain those alpine highs.

We can organise helicopter access to many great alpine locations.

The benefits are clear, far less time and effort to gain altitude to inspiring alpine areas.

This gives you the possibilities to do as much hands on ascent as you want to gain a peak or just enjoy the amazing scenery and environment.

All heli hikes are by arrangement only, with helicopter costs extra to guiding fees.

Helicopter costs are dependant on numbers of participants and flying time.
