Locating Mt Cook

Aoraki - Mount Cook is located centrally in New Zealand's Southern Alps.
Adding to the picturesque qualities of the location, Mount Cook lies at the head of Lake Pukaki and the melted waters of the surrounding glaciers melt and run into the lake.

The closest major international airport to Mount Cook and the Mackenzie Country is in Christchurch, the largest city in the South Island.

The route into Mount Cook is approximately 60km from the main route through the central South Island and is a no exit road along the western shore of Lake Pukaki.
