- New Zealand's breath taking scenery from the air -- Take a helicopter trip over Mount Taranaki, viewing this amazing volcano from the best possible positions. On the way out and return we see New Plymouth's coastline, finishing with moving photos of some the Taranaki Regions best sights.
My home town. I was brought up in New Plymouth. Beautiful. My two brothers still live there. My Dad won a helicopter flight over Mt Taranaki but he was too claustrophobic and couldn't get into the helicopter so Mum went instead. She loved it.
Hi Linda, New Plymouth is a lovely place to be able to call your hometown. I'm glad your Mum enjoyed the ride.
I lived in Taranaki for 50 yrs Tim. I recently moved to West Coast Buller S I in last 8yrs. I fly up to NP every 4yrs or so to visit family. I look for the mountain. Its an automatic response for a local. It draws you in somehow.
Its a wonderful place to have grown up in.I find.I miss the mountain.
Yes I've climbed Mt Taranaki. Also tramped several tracks and stayed up at the different huts. Lots of memories. Pouakai tramp was an amazing one. Wilkies pools, and Dawson Falls, eating lunch at its base. And Bells falls and many more. North Egmont at night after a snow fall reminded me of Silent Night Holy Night. All is calm all is Bright. The stillness, peace. Making Snow Angels. AWESOME!
HAPPY CHRISTMAS TIM.
Thankyou. Kia Ora.
Hello Eileen, I enjoyed your memories of time spent on the mountain, I did walk some of the way up, but nowhere near as far as you did, it really is a beautiful place, I especially liked the views from a rail cart along the old SOL Railway, heading in the Stratford direction. Thanks for the Christmas Greetings, I hope you have a good one too. Kia Ora.
I’m originally from Wellington NZ & spent many happy school holidays with family in Hawera, in the shadow of beautiful Mt Egmont (Taranaki) as it was called back then. Thank you, brought back many wonderful memories & a pang of homesickness. Have lived in Australia for over 40yrs now.
Hi, I'm pleased you enjoyed the video, I can fully understand your feelings towards your homeland, especially your childhood holidays around Taranaki, but on the other hand Australia's a great place to call home.

This was definitely a Sea-to-Sky-to-Sea trip!
Most enjoyable and I was able to watch in on my HDTV from my laptop, the colours and details were awesome.
Thanks,
Bob
My first trip around a volcano. Beautiful video. Thanks for sharing. I like New Zealand
Thanks for your comment, New Zealand is a beautiful country with a number of volcanoes and plenty of volcanic activity .... Tim.
Awesome flight over the epic mountain 👍
I'm pleased you enjoyed it. I love the Taranaki region of New Zealand.
Beatifull, beatifull!!

Thank you, I am pleased you enjoyed it.
Excellent views of Mount Egmont / Egmont National Park. Cheers for the great footage.

brilliant, ive seen it from a distance countless times, but that was very very good
Amazing views!
Mount Egmont on a fine day. It really is beautiful. 🇳🇿
I agree, Mount Taranaki / Mount Egmont is an awesome backdrop to a beautiful part of New Zealand.
The weather was so pleasant at the time of the video.. Beautiful sight :)
3:07 It's the Tahurangi Lodge. It looks like a speck of dust relative to Mt Taranaki's size 😮
Wow that's a coincidence, I am just editing a new video showing New Plymouth and Mount Taranaki. It's an awesome mountain, the video should be available by next weekend.
Beautifully filmed - many thanks.
Thank you ... Tim.
It was interesting to see what looked to be a lava dome in Taranaki's summit crater, with the stumps of lava spines poking through it
Hi Carolyn, I'm not am expert on volcanic matters, but I love visiting the thermal parks and volcanic mountains in New Zealand. Taranaki is visually stunning, it dominates the landscape of the Taranaki region.
I can't think of a better way to see Mount Taranaki. It was a wonderful experience.
Timsvideochannel1 amazing! Is it active?
Way cool, Tim. Thanks so much for posting this.
Thank you, I'm pleased you enjoyed it.
Mt Egmont. I love it.
The view from a helicopter of this natural wonder and the surrounding countryside is awesome, its expensive, but its worth it.
Timsvideochannel1 it's so green
The colours are really vivid, especially the emerald greens in the bright sunlight.
Amazing recording
Thank you, I'm pleased you enjoyed it.
I loved living in Stratford and visiting Mount Taranaki with my three son where they were the very first to display a snowboard made from there skateboard beautiful place which I wouldn't mind living again in the near future mmm
It is a beautiful area in one of the worlds most scenic countries and the start of the Forgotten Highway one of my favourite drives, it's hard to find a reason not to want to live there.
Such a wicked-looking mountain...one of four stratovolcanoes where the side just explodes away. It has the capability to bury Auckland , and turn it into a ruin
This mountain really dominates the skyline throughout the Taranaki region, I hope it doesn't blow, I'm planning on visiting Auckland in February next year (2019).
I didn't think you could get that high in that helicopter, but you got way above it.
It was a bit bumpy, the view was awesome.
ever been up the top?? awesome place!!
Hi, I only ever got to see the top from a helicopter, it was a amazing place.
Lovely. Must a slight feeling of disappointment everytime you land one of those things....
I love to see the world from above and a helicopter is a great way to do it. I'm glad you enjoyed the flight.
@@Timsvideochannel1 I have only had the pleasure of being in
once...Loved it
@@waiotahi52It's nice that you have good memories from your own flight, it is a wonderful experience.
The weather in NZ is like the weather in England, very changeable, but on this day I was lucky :)
Thanks for your comment Bob.
Great video. Mt. Taranaki is shown to perfection, an almost perfect cone.
The mountain totally dominates the scenery in this part of the world. Its awesome majesty as it penetrates the autumn mist on a sunny morning has to be seen to be believed.
Oh get fucked.
U need a fucking cone love....
Brilliant !!!
Thank you.
Choice guys I live not far from the mountain and see it all the time but still loved the vid....awesome

Cheers Joe, you live in a beautiful part of the world. I try to visit the "The Forgotten Highway" whenever visit NZ. The drive towards Stratford with Mount Taranaki in the distance on a clear bright day is an awesome sight.
Thank you Tim.
Cheers, I hope you enjoyed it.
Thank you.
What a great video! Thank you for putting this up. We've shared it on our Heliview Facebook page as well :).
What happened to you Richard?
Nice stay connected
I want to live in the naki
It's an awesome place.
Looks like mount egmont to me. 😁
Life is confusing when a mountain reverts to its original name 😉
@@Timsvideochannel1it's always been mt egmont to me 😁 and will be always. Same goes for white island.
@@jasonshaw7590 I have visited Wales in Great Britain many times since I was young, most of the place names were in English, back then, now they are in Welsh, I still remember them by the names they had when I first visited, so I understand where you are coming from.
Silly me I climbed it😭😭
I'd love to have climbed it, bet it was an awesome experience.
It won't let me paste the link, so just search for Heliview on Facebook ;-).
wow actually looks like a giant dragon,can anyone see it
At 06:50 the greenery looks a bit like the body of a dragon.
@@Timsvideochannel1 look from 5mins to 6mins you can see the full aerial veiw of a fossilised dragon like something out of the game of thrones
@@lowbudget1661 I can see something that looks a bit like a fossilised like a dragon.
Hey I am from Taranaki!!
I was also in Taranaki this week, it's a great place. We were on our way to visit Forgotten World adventures to ride a jet boat and the rail carts.
Who gives a fuck... seriously???😂
Nahh..just trolling 4 a reaction
I thought there's a lava in Taranaki
Hi, there are no Lava flows from Taranaki, it last erupted around 350 years ago. You might find this interesting, please click on the link - teara.govt.nz/en/1966/volcanic-and-thermal-activity
Thanks for that NEW ZEALAND good and I love to learn volcanoes i'm Filipino in here if you know Mayon Mayon in albay people in there is so sad and there house on top is white THANK YOU MAN! #ILOVEFILIPINO
Hi , I looked at this link to learn more en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mayon, and there was an eruption as recently as January 13 - March 29, 2018.
Timsvideochannel1 THANKS
Volcanoes. The last major eruption of Taranaki (also known as Egmont Volcano) occurred around 1854; the mountain dominates the productive farmland of the Taranaki region. The 2518 m tall cone volcano last erupted about 150 years ago at the culmination of several eruptions in the preceding few hundred years.
Do you know at movie "The Last Samurai" Mount Taranaki plays Mount Fuji? I think about why. ;)

I didn't know that, I learn something new every day :-)
Good morning, I work for Ciaopeople Media Group (www.ciaopeople.it), the italian publisher of Geopop, our magazine about Earth Science. We would like to achieve a videostory about Mount Taranaki (for our Facebook, Instagram and UA-cam channels), explaining its geological nature. That’s why I’m asking your permission to use your video, crediting you.
Let me know as soon as possible. All the best from Italy!
Hi, I allow up to 5 minutes to be used from any one of my videos, so long as the original sound is replaced if it includes speech and the visual content is credited to my channel. I hope this helps. You might also find this video interesting - ua-cam.com/video/XHtpzij0-qA/v-deo.html
Can you put a chain on a wheelchair with me in the wheelchair and drop me off at the top?
It would be an interesting trip back down the mountain.
