an exhilarating and mountain soaring adventure

“A truly authentic and unforgettable Kiwi farmhouse experience.”-- Dan and Nicola Truman, Wimbledon, London.

If you are looking for an exhilarating and mountain soaring adventure, Omarama is the place to be. Known as a haven for gliders, this part of North Otago near Mt. Cook, offers an extraordinary and crystal clear view of the airspace in the region.

Like so many pilots from all over the world who converge every year to experience the unique thermal condition produced by the Southern Alps, you will also enjoy the clear blue sky above and the stunning scenery of the mountains, rivers and valleys below.

If you are a visiting pilot or a first time glider, we can help you make the most of your experience while you are staying at Dunstan Downs Sheep Merino Station.

We can help you with arrangements, like finding an instructor and the best place to experience this adventure.
