1) yes. Heli operators need to be granted a concession to land passengers in the Forest parks.
2) no. They can only land at designated landing sites. Landing sites must also be booked by an operator over a period. This prevents operators landing clients on top of other clients.
The two main operators in this area are Helisika and East Kaweka Helicopters.
Certain areas of the Kaimanawa are no go for helicopters because they fall within the remote experience zone.
