The Sealy Tarns Viewpoint at Aoraki/Mount Cook National Park is an excursion for adventure-seekers. As you ascend the 2,200 steps to reach this alpine paradise, fantastic views of Hooker Valley and its surrounding peaks, including Aoraki/Mount Cook, will take your breath away. In summertime, the abundance of colourful alpine flowers adds a warm touch to the refreshing atmosphere. When you finally reach the Sealy Tarns lake, relax and enjoy the serenity of this 'stairway to heaven'. It's an experience that's sure to be treasured for a lifetime.
