Climb to 10,000ft and fly towards Mt Ruapehu, the North Island's highest peak and largest active volcano.

Get a close up view of the summit crater and Crater Lake (Te Wai ā-moe), sitting high within the mountain. From the helicopter you'll be able to appreciate the scale of the crater, its volcanic features and the alpine landscape that surrounds it.

On a clear day, enjoy views across the Central Plateau, Lake Taupō Basin and the Kaimanawa Ranges before returning to base.
