Experience Peak Luxury Through Helicopter Golf in Queenstown

Where the Southern Alps pierce the clouds, and the world's most picturesque golf hole awaits, Over The Top helicopter company and the Golf Warehouse bring an extraordinary alpine heli-golf experience that defies imagination. At 4,500 feet above Queenstown, this exclusive golf course transforms the traditional game into an adventure that combines aerial luxury with the ultimate altitude challenge.

Cecil Peak: The ultimate alpine golfing challenge

Nestled in the majestic Southern Alps of New Zealand, this par three golf course presents the altitude golfer with an unparalleled challenge. Four tee boxes cascade down the mountainside, each offering a remarkable test of skill—and remarkably, no golfer has yet achieved a hole-in-one at this extraordinary height.

The Pro's Tee "Over The Rock" stands sentinel at 4,921 feet, challenging the most adventurous golfers to drive across a stunning alpine void. Below, the Eco Tee "The Keynote" at 4,839 feet demands precision, with eco balls recommended for its challenging keyhole tee position. The Men's "Extreme Tee" at 4,790 feet and Ladies' "Chick Shot" at 4,757 feet offer their own thrilling perspectives, while the Green "Sip & Putt" at 4,500 feet provides a perfect finale overlooking Queenstown.

The course rules echo the extraordinary setting: your helicopter serves as both transport and backdrop as you stand tall and swing against the alpine winds. Navigate carefully between tees, watching for green pricks (the indigenous Aciphylla horrida) that dot the par-3 course. Embrace the unique "throw uphill" placing rule, and let the scoreboard record your triumph over this Over the Top exclusive golf course.

Luxury transportation taking flight to the green

Your journey begins aboard Over The Top's distinguished black fleet—featuring state-of-the-art Airbus, Eurocopter EC130, and Squirrel AS350 helicopters. Each aircraft combines luxury with safety, featuring plush leather seating and Bose noise-cancelling headsets. As Queenstown's only operator consistently awarded the International Helicopter Operator Safety Award, their pilot-guides bring over 40 years of combined experience to every flight.

Choose your departure point from the Queenstown CBD or arrange convenient pickup from local golf courses, including The Hills, Jack's Point, and Millbrook Resort. With Over The Top helicopter access only, players will fly in, drive, chip, and putt out on the top, joining an elite circle of golfers who've experienced the sport from nature's ultimate viewpoint.

Planning your Queenstown golf helicopter tour

This unique golf experience flourishes during spring, summer, and autumn when clear skies and moderate temperatures create perfect conditions for the fly-drive-putt adventure. Winter's snow coverage over Cecil Peak makes the course inaccessible until spring's return.

Select your challenge from Nearest to Pin, Longest Putt, Hole in One, or Longest Drive. The heli-golf experience includes your choice of two tees and provides five balls over 1.5 exhilarating hours. For special occasions, the Altitude Green package offers private access for events and celebrations, where guests can fly in to sip and putt overlooking Queenstown.

Bring only the essentials: a camera, sunglasses, sturdy shoes, a warm jacket, and an adventurous spirit—everything else is provided.
