Pure NZ Mountaineering - Climbs Without Helicopters

Great mountaineering accessed by foot!

It's easy to forget that there are so many interesting & worthy peaks in NZ that can be  accessed on foot.  Sure, glacial recession has made the going harder, but there are still many peaks that don't require a slow and arduous battle up glacial moraine.    Moreover, many of the them can be climbed on foot in 4 days.   We have a list of just a few of them on our website.

Dan Turner, is one of our Australian clients who likes his NZ mountaineering to be more on the "natural" side.   An avid amateur film maker he has generously made a neat little clip of last years ascent of Mt Brewster 2515m with IFMGA Guide - Stefan Sporli.  It's great footage!  

This years mission was Nun's Veil 2700m in the Mt Cook Climbing Region.  We'll leave Dan's next video to tell that story.

Enjoy.
