Ski and Snowboarding VacationsNEW ZEALANDNew Zealand is one of the most popular places for skiing, snowboarding and heli skiing in the Southern Hemisphere. The main ski resort towns are Queenstown and Wanaka which also provide sensational heli skiing. The New Zealand ski season is roughly early July to early October and starts as the Northern Hemisphere slopes finally melt away making New Zealand an increasingly popular international ski destination. The main North Island fields include the country's two largest and most popular destinations, Turoa and Whakapapa. The Southern Alps give the South Island a great deal more scope, with the greatest concentration of commercial fields being around Queenstown - Coronet Peak and The Remarkables; and Wanaka - Treble Cone, Cardrona and the Waiorau Nordic Ski Area. Further north Mount Hutt and Mount Potts are both within two hours drive of Christchurch International Airport. Updated Snow Reports click here Queenstown Ski Resort
