Itinerary 

DAY 1

·      Christchurch - We begin this snow-filled adventure by leaving Garden City and heading to Mt Hutt for the day, making the most of the day ahead. On the way, your driver will point out all the highlights of Christchurch, and you will pass through the beautiful countryside as we wind our way to Mt Hutt. 

·      Mt Hutt – We arrive at Mt Hutt - This is a true alpine experience with magical views, wide-open terrain, and huge snowfalls you haven’t skied in New Zealand until you have skied Mt Hutt, plus it is the perfect experience for beginners and seasoned skiers. 

·      Wanaka – After an awesome time on the slopes, we leave Mt Hutt and head down to Wanaka where we will spend the night. Wanaka is known for its après-ski life, full of restaurants, and bars, where you can eat, drink and, socialize after a great day on the slopes. 

DAY 2

·      Wanaka – We start the day with breakfast, getting ourselves ready for another exciting day visiting the ski fields. 

·      Treble Cone – Our playfield on the slopes today is Treble Cone. This mountain lies within the heart of the majestic Southern Alps, which protects it from the bitterly cold southerly winds, and there are stunning views across Wanaka. Plus, it is the largest ski area in the South Island.  There is plenty of varied terrains, and a purpose-built learner area, perfect for those who are just new to the skiing lifestyle.  Treble Cone also has its home basin chairlift, which offers the highest vertical drop in the South Island. Day Two also has an alternative option, to make sure that you get in an awesome day on the slopes with Cardrona being one of the top mountains in New Zealand. Cardrona is also known to have dry natural snow and wide-open spaces, so skiers of all abilities are catered for. 

·      Queenstown – We head to Queenstown for the night – the adventure capital of New Zealand. Only an hour away from Wanaka, where there is so much more adventure to be had. Restaurants and bars are aplenty there, where you can reflect on the last two days and your time on the slopes. 

DAY 3

·      Queenstown – It is the third and final day of our snow experience. Before we say goodbye to one another, we begin the day with breakfast, before heading to Queenstown’s local mountain. 

·      Coronet Peak – We head off to the South Island's oldest and most developed ski field. Everything that is designed here at Coronet Peak is designed to maximize the most of your skiing, and just like the previous fields we have visited there are dedicated slopes for beginners and plenty of choices for experienced skiers. As the home of the night sky, Coronet Peak offers night skiing on certain days, so you can view the stunning sunset before skiing your way down the mountain. This certainly is a bucket list activity you will want to tick off your list.
