Embark on an unforgettable adventure with a helicopter ride from Christchurch to the stunning Sugarloaf restaurant at Flockhill, nestled in the Southern Alps. As you soar over breathtaking landscapes, you’ll be treated to sweeping views of snow-capped peaks, alpine valleys, and sprawling farmland, offering a unique perspective of Canterbury’s natural beauty. Once you arrive at Flockhill, the mountain scenery and open skies set the stage for an exceptional four-course lunch, including a refreshing beverage on arrival.
At Sugarloaf, enjoy open-flame dining with a seasonal, sustainable menu, crafted using fresh produce from Flockhill’s gardens and surrounding land. Sugarloaf's dedicated gardener, Sally, cultivates over 30 varieties of fruit, vegetables, and herbs, while the chefs preserve seasonal harvests to ensure a year-round connection to the land.
The restaurant’s warm, textured design offers various dining options, from intimate tables to a communal space by the fireplace, allowing you to indulge in locally inspired dishes with rich flavours. This three-hour experience offers a true taste of Canterbury’s finest produce, served in a mindful, authentic New Zealand dining atmosphere.
