Mt Brewster is located in New Zealand's Southern Alps, near Haast Pass, on the Main Divide. This 2-day trek will take you hiking in this beautiful area and you'll even get the chance to walk on Brewster Glacier!
The starting point for this 2-day trek is just a short driving distance away from our office in Wanaka. This hike offers a true alpine adventure!
It has the advantage of not receiving many visitors. It's a secret gem in one of the corners of Aspiring National Park. Thus, you'll enjoy magnificent views all along this 2-day hike!
We will start by crossing the Haast River at Fantail Falls. From there, a steep ascent through breech forest will take us to Brewster Hut. This hut is situated in the most stunning spot and, from here, we'll have to choose between hiking to Brewster Glacier or climbing to the summit of nearby Mt Armstrong (2179m).
After our hike on the second day, we'll go back down to Fantail Falls and then drive back to Wanaka. However, we'll have to make a short stop along the way to get ice cream at the Makarora rural settlement.
So if this hike to Brewster Glacier sounds like a good idea, contact us now to make it happen! This 2-day trek is a fantastic way to get to know New Zealand's Southern Alps.
We also offer an amazing 3-day hiking trip to Gillespie Pass. It provides another great opportunity to get to know this stunning area of New Zealand.

Great trip to Gillespie Pass! The organisation was great, and in particular my guide Cameron was really professional and very well prepared, and we had a lot of fun on some spectacular hikes and chilling out afterwards at the excellent huts. An absolute highlight of my New Zealand trip!
Stay up-to-date on the best adventures.
