Immerse yourself in the magical scenery brought to life by Peter Jackson in Lord of The Rings. Combine the Mt Olympus and Mt Owen tours for the ultimate Lord of the Rings experience.
From our heli base at Nelson Airport, board one of our modern helicopters and track northwest into Golden Bay for a landing on Mt Olympus to explore the site of South of Rivendell. Reboard the helicopter again to fly south towards Mt Owen, above the vast and untouched terrain that is the very heart of the Kahurangi National Park. Land once more to view the rocky landscape that became the
Exit from the Mines of Moria. From here it is a short flight back to our base with views of Tasman Bay. Optional add on – Salisbury Falls in the Aorere River of Golden Bay is at the very start of Kahurangi National Park’s Heaphy Track. This was the film site where Tauriel & Legolas met before heading into Lake-town.
