Day 1: Queenstown

Your airport transfer will be waiting for you to transport you to Haka Lodge Queenstown.

We are located centrally, so cafes, restaurants and bars are just a short stroll away. We get started officially at 4.30pm with a welcome meeting where you will meet your Tour Manager and other tour members.

Tonight we “break the ice” at Minus 5 Ice Bar followed by a shared dinner in at the Rhino Shack, but before we do that, if you’ve opted to hire ski/snowboard gear we’ll pick that up.

Day 2: Cardrona

Cardrona is renowned among skiers and boarders for inspiring terrain and dry, natural snow. With 320 hectares of wide, undulating trails, open slopes, steep chutes and awesome terrain parks, there’s something here for all to enjoy.

Your morning on the mountain starts with your first lesson at 10:20am and the second at 1:00pm

Day 3: The Remarkables

On offer today for your delight: wide open trails, native Keas, powder snow, spectacular views, sun drenched terrain and unforgettable runs. There’s terrain here like you have never seen before, and, if you’re prepared to exercise the legs a little, you will discover some of the longest off-piste runs around.

Day 4: Coronet Peak

With outstanding views over Queenstown and Lake Wakatipu, Coronet Peak is the oldest and most developed ski area in the South Island. Spread across a broad mountain, the field is wide and sunny with an astounding variety of runs, and the on-field facilities are some of the best around.

FAQ - Queenstown Snow Fix

Can I join a tour if I have never been skiing or snowboarding?

Yes! This tour is the perfect way to start, as we offer lessons on the first two mountain days, for those that require it.

Where does this tour start?

It starts at 4.30pm at Haka Lodge in Queenstown, (6 Henry Street). Check in is at 2pm, so feel free to arrive early and store your gear or check in.

When can I take part in activities while in Queenstown?

The best option to do activities is either on the first day (Friday), by arriving early or by staying an extra night and doing activities on the Tuesday, after breakfast.

Although the tour ends officially after breakfast, your guide will be on hand to arrange any activities you want to book - thought it's best to have a chat to him earlier on, or let our office staff know which ones you want to do. Below are the most popular activities

Skydiving
Canyon Swing
