AN experienced climber has died after falling 600 metres in New Zealand's Aoraki Mt Cook National Park.
A climbing companion raised the alarm on Sunday morning.
Members of the Department of Conservation alpine rescue team responded quickly but the foreign male climber died as a result of the fall.
The name and country of origin of the dead climber are yet to be released.
Rescuers returned with the uninjured climbing partner and the body was recovered.
The climbing pair went into the park on Saturday with the intention of climbing Aoraki Mt Cook and were skiing and traversing at 3700m towards the lower summit of the mountain when the accident happened.
Climbing conditions were good and the weather was fine.
The climbers were very experienced and had earlier successfully scaled the east face of the mountain.
