WHO ARE WE
WE ARE YOUR GUIDES TO THE SUMMIT OF MT ALFRED
We believe it's our privilege to share what we love with you so we've made it our mission to make your day with us an absolute holiday highlight.
We are New Zealanders who grew up surrounded by wilderness and spending time in the great outdoors is what we are most passionate about. We are professional guides, adventure seekers, nature lovers, photographers and conservationists. We mountain bike, ski, paddle-board, trail run, dive, hike and camp, plant trees and care for the environment- if it's fun and outside you'll find us there.
We established the Mount Alfred Guiding Company in 2017 to provide safe access to the summit of Mt Alfred. Mt Alfred is private land and not open to the public. We uphold the privilege of access through our conservation-centred philosophy: to leave the natural world in better shape then we found it. This commitment means we have planted hundreds of natives back into the environment. Our goal is thousands. By hiking with us you provide revenue that we use to achieve this target. Discover our difference, be part of our conservation legacy, come hike with us
