Simply put, Minaret Station offers a true alpine experience. Set high above the clouds, your stay at Minaret will give you access to heli tours, hikes, skiing and, of course, some truly stunning views that&#8217;ll take your breath away as soon as you arrive.<\/p>\n<h2>Location<\/h2>\n<p>The lodge is only accessible by helicopter or boat and sits amongst the mostly untouched Southern Alps. With a glacial valley to one side and Lake Wanaka to the other, you really will find yourself at one with your natural surroundings. Thanks to this remote location, you&#8217;ll find a peace and quiet at Minaret that you&#8217;ll want to simply bask in for hours. And once you&#8217;re done basking, exploring these incredibly dramatic landscapes will be next on the list.<\/p>\n<h2>Your room<\/h2>\n<p>There are just four luxury chalets available, so this really is the height of exclusivity. Each chalet boasts a suite of rooms adorned in sheepskin and country-style furnishings &#8211; the perfect cosy retreat to come back to at the end of each adventure-filled day. Local art covers the walls of the Mountain Kitchen that features two further living areas with open fires and world-class dining facilities.<\/p>\n<h2>Why we like it<\/h2>\n<p>The wealth of activities available here is the real allure. For those active and adventurous enough, heli-skiing is the order of the day, and there are plenty of fishing and hiking tours too. What&#8217;s not to like? And when you&#8217;re weary from a day out on the Alps, the utter beauty of the accommodation itself will delight, as will the flavors served up at the Mountain Kitchen using only the freshest local produce.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is a property for the more intrepid explorer; for those who really want to get away from it all.
