Discover Mount Cook New Zealand and Mount Cook Accommodation

No matter the season a trip to the stunning Mount Cook, New Zealand is a must during your time in the South Island. The Aoraki / Mount Cook National Park is known as the perfect alpine environment - with glaciers, snow fields and skyscraping peaks. Mount Cook itself is New Zealand's tallest mountain and towers to a colossal 3754 meters. Mount Cook Village is situated beside the scenic Lake Pukaki and provides the perfect base for alpine pursuits. Snow skiing and boarding is a must and the slopes will cater from intermediate to expert levels. If you want to splash out and see the stunning mountain range from the air then book one of the great Helicopter Tours on offer. Due to its central location Mount Cook offers a number of One Way Trips allowing you to explore and enjoy the other amazing destinations such as Queenstown, Wanaka and Christchurch. The choice of Mount Cook hostels is very limited but there are a few bars to relax in after a day of skiing and sightseeing. Probably the best Mount Cook accommodation is actually in one of the surrounding towns such as Lake Tekapo, where you will get a better choice of places to stay and evening entertainment.
