Wanaka Ski Touring
During the peak of Wanaka’s Ski Season the lift queues get longer at the Cardrona & Treble Cone ski fields. Ski-Touring then becomes a great alternative to the crowds. It’s also a great option in the spring. We have a number of great ski touring locations which are close to our hangar.
We can offer drop off and/or pick-up helicopter rides at a reasonable price for small groups (maximum 5 passengers per helicopter)
Email or call us with your ski touring enquiry for more information.
