Set table on a glacier with a helicopter above

Glacier
Dining

Fine dining on a glacier

Where the helicopter
drops you

You fly low over ridges and ice fields until the helicopter drops you on a glacier where nobody else is. The table is already set: furs on the benches, candles on the table, and a view no restaurant can offer.

A menu of the highest level, in a place you would otherwise only reach with rope and crampons. You eat, you look, you hear nothing but wind and ice. Then the helicopter takes you back down to the valley.

Behind the scenes

What we
take care of

A table on a glacier takes more than a beautiful picture. This is what happens before you land.

01

The location

We choose the landing zone and the table spot together with local pilots and mountain experts, at a safe distance from crevasses.

02

The set up

Table, benches, furs and tableware are flown in and set up in advance, so everything is ready when you land.

03

The kitchen

A menu designed for cold and altitude, served warm, with the drinks that go with it.

04

The weather

We follow the forecasts closely, plan a reserve day and only fly when it is safe.

Where does Glacier Dining take place?

On glaciers where a helicopter is allowed to land, among others in New Zealand, Iceland, the Swiss Alps, Norway, Alaska and Patagonia. Every place has its own landing rules. Your proposal includes concrete locations that suit your group and the period.

Do I need mountain experience?

No. The helicopter drops you at the table and takes you back. You only walk a few metres over the snow, within a zone that has been checked in advance.

Is it not too cold?

We choose the period and the hour with the most sun, put furs and blankets on the benches and serve warm. You receive clothing advice in advance, so you sit comfortably at the table.

What if the weather is bad?

In the mountains the weather decides, and the pilot has the final say. That is why we plan a reserve day or an alternative, so your experience is not lost.

How many people can join?

From a table for two to a larger group. A helicopter takes a limited number of people per flight, so larger groups fly in several rotations.

Is it safe?

Safety is our highest priority. We work with experienced local pilots and mountain experts, the table zone is marked out and you always stay within it.

What does an experience cost?

Every experience is tailor made. The price depends on the location, the group size, the period and what you want to add. You receive a clear price together with your proposal, without surprises afterwards.
