Ski New Zealand

So, have you skied in New Zealand? And how did you find it?

Wherever you are in New Zealandn in the winter, and particularly in the South Island, you’re never too far from a ski slope. In fact, you should be able to go cross-country skiing in New Zealand almost anywhere there’s snow.

The two skiing destinations on the South Island which come immediately to mind are Queenstown, which calls itself the Adventure Capital of the World, and Christchurch with its major international airport.

On the North Island, travel to the snowfields from Auckland or Wellington.
