Aoraki / Mount Cook
As the highest mountain in New Zealand, Mount Cook will give you a stunning view like no other.
The summit is 3,724 metres high, and a great way to experience the mountain (especially in the cooler months) is to take a small sightseeing plane or helicopter and fly over the Tasman Glacier.
Make sure you spend a few days in the area as you will have to stay for a long time to catch the chance of better weather conditions before you can fly.
