3 MINARET STATION New Zealand

Sheltered by the seclusion of the Southern Alps, this intimate familyowned alpine lodge is accessible only by helicopter, where the rugged mountains unique to New Zealand’s wilderness provide the ultimate privacy. Whether searching for adventurous heli-tours or secluded self-reflection, guests are catered for with personalised care as each itinerary is curated to their unique needs. The lodge extends its range of accommodation with the offer of a number of private chalets, each separately positioned in a high alpine meadow and featuring in-deck hot tubs, spacious ensuite bathrooms and sweeping views of nothing save the uninhabited expanse of the surrounding alpine region. minaretstation.com
