The resorts...

The mountain resorts of the Wanaka / Queenstown region where we ride on this tour provide the best natural and park terrain of anywhere in the world, hands down. Parks and pipes are shaped by experts, including the official shaper of the ESPN Winter X-Games. Parks are shaped up each day to ensure you are riding smooth and amazing park terrain. Come enjoy New Zealand, this place is amazing!

There’s 5 resorts where we ride in NZ:

Wanaka / Queenstown is home to the largest resorts in New Zealand – boasting five resorts. The riding is most similar to Whistler Canada or Mammoth California, with a wetter, maritime snowpack that sets up very quickly and hangs onto all kinds of faces and rock outcroppings, making for perfect cliff take-offs and chutes. High speed chairlifts including a high-speed six-pack make the lift system modern, and the snow making systems for the terrain parks are those leading the industry standard.

About Wanaka - the quaint lakeside resort town that is our home base for this tour:

Wanaka, a pristine lake & alpine resort is New Zealand’s southern lakes district, offers the perfect combination of tranquility, exhilarating outdoor adventure, fabulous food and a friendly, down-to-earth atmosphere.

Walking, climbing, mountain biking, boating and fishing are right on the doorstep and the mountain resorts of Cardrona, Snow Park, and Treble Cone are within easy reach. People from all over the world come here to sit back and relax, enjoy the fresh air or live it up at one of Wanaka’s many arts festivals.

Queenstown is only an hour’s drive over the Crown Range - the highest public road in New Zealand – or via the orchards of Cromwell, following Lake Dunstan and the spectacular Kawarau Gorge. Daily flights leave Wanaka’s airport for Christchurch and the rest of the world.

The lifestyle here is what you make of it. Whether it’s for a holiday or the rest of your life, a walk around Wanaka will remind you what it feels like to be alive.
