MOUNT SEFTON AND FOOTSTOOL

Mount Sefton is a mountain in the Aroarokaehe Range of the Southern Alps of New Zealand, just 12 kilometres south of Aoraki / Mount Cook. To the south lies Mount Brunner, and to the north The Footstool, both more than 400 metres shorter. 

Mount Sefton is a stunning peak which towers high over Mount Cook Village and according to Maori legend is the guardian of Aoraki (Mount Cook). The isolated 3151m peak is one of New Zealand’s premier wilderness climbs, and an excellent opportunity to climb an iconic 3000m peak entirely from sea level to summit!
