A police spokeswoman said they were called to the base of the Treble Cone ski-field after two people were injured during a bad paragliding landing.
They were a part of a group led by a local commercial operation.
St John was notified just before midday and sent an ambulance from Wanaka. Crew attended to two patients with minor injuries, a spokesperson said.
The pair were taken to Wanaka Lakes Combined Health Centre.
There was no word on the age or genders of the two.
Treble Cone is a popular spot for paragliders during the summer months when the ski field is not open.
