New Zealand’s Premier
Luxury Lodge Experience
On the rugged South Island, Minaret Station provides guests with a taste of New Zealand’s great outdoors, offering warmth and authenticity at every turn. Minaret Station is proud to offer Minaret Station Alpine Lodge, Minaret Station Guided Experiences and Minaret Station Events.
Alpine Lodge
There are few, if any, places quite like this in the world. Private, luxury lodge accommodation set in a remote glacial valley surrounded by towering peaks, accessible only by helicopter. Comfortable in every sense, with warm hospitality and world class cuisine, Minaret Station Alpine Lodge is truly an extraordinary location to escape the “real world”. With just four chalets, Minaret Station Alpine Lodge provides the opportunity to enjoy some of life’s most precious elements; time, fresh air and open space, whilst creating life-long memories with friends and family.
Family owned with more than fifty years hosting guests from New Zealand and around the world.
Guided experiences
We invite you to enjoy the remarkable privately guided day adventures offered by the team at Minaret Station. These helicopter day excursions are available for guests staying around the Queenstown and Wanaka region, as well as at our own Alpine Lodge.
Go beyond the beaten path as our guides and pilots share the beauty of Fiordland, Milford Sound, Dusky Sound, Aoraki Mt Cook and our many National Parks. Or seek deeper adventures with backcountry fly fishing, heli-skiing, hiking, mountain biking and guided hunting. Minaret Station Experiences are hosted by our friendly, professional guides and feature the outstanding food and service for which we are renowned.
