Queenstown Ski Holiday Packages

Set amid the magnificent Southern Alps in New Zealand's South Island, Queenstown boasts four world-class ski resorts within easy driving distance. If you're new to the slopes, Coronet Peak offers excellent facilities for learners, including four conveyors, modern, easy-to-use chair lifts and wide nursery slopes. The price of a full-day adult pass here starts at 139 New Zealand dollars (around £72) and will give you access to lifts at The Remarkables Ski Area. Located 6,375 feet above sea level, the "Remarks'' keeps powder hounds coming back for more with its 951 acres of skiable terrain and breathtaking views. Cardrona also offers plenty of winter fun. Home to Big Bucks Park, the biggest terrain park in the Southern Hemisphere, it attracts snow enthusiasts of all kinds, from beginners to international Olympians. If you're after more Queenstown ski holiday package options, consider Treble Cone, the largest ski area in the South Island. At 2,297 feet, its vertical rise is the longest in the Queenstown Southern Lakes District.

How To Get Around

Hop behind the wheel of a hire car at Queenstown Intl. Airport (ZQN) and take the short 10-15 minute drive (5 miles) into the centre of Queenstown. If you're planning to traverse the slopes of Coronet Peak, it'll take you another 20 minutes by car. Keep in mind that Queenstown is an alpine region and conditions can be challenging in the winter months. Snow chains are mandatory during the ski season.

Queenstown Things to Do

If you're craving heart-stopping action during your Queenstown ski holiday, jump aboard the famous Shotover Jet and experience the thrill of jet boating at break-neck speed through narrow canyons. Relaxed and quiet or fast and furious, you can create a Queenstown ski holiday package to suit your needs. Bundle your flights, hotel and hire car into one of our ski package deals and discover what this exciting destination has to offer.
