Snow Tours 2025

Here at Green Kiwi Tours, we are pretty mad about snow. That’s why we have created the perfect 5 day snow tour of the South Island. Join your local guide as we embark on an awesome winter adventure through the Southern Alps to 5 of New Zealand’s best ski fields. If you want minimal crowds and maximum powder, this is the tour for you! We only ride weekdays and skip out the busiest fields so you have more time on the snow.

Our tour starts and finishes in Christchurch. We meet at 6am on day one and finish at approximately 8:00pm on the last day.
Mt Hutt is our local! It was easily the most consistent for snow fall last season, recieving a total of 320cm of powder and boasts amazing views out to Christchurch, the Canterbury Plains and Pacific Ocean. If you need a lesson to refresh your skills, their instructors are truly world class.
Deep in the interior sits Ohau Snow Field. In 2023 Ohau was stoked to welcome a 1 metre snow storm! With a super relaxed club field vibe, awesome home cooked kai and great terrain, there’s something for everyone. If conditions are right, hike up and slash some pow on the epic ‘Ridge Run’.
Known by the locals are ‘Cardies’, Cardrona has recently become NZ’s biggest ski area with a whopping 600+ Hectares of ridable terrain! Cardrona is the most comprehensive field on our trip, boasting 8 chair lifts, world class park runs and awesome riding on and off piste.
Treble Cone is well known for its gnarly off piste terrain, attracting many free skiers and riders. For the more relaxed skiers and riders, dont sweat, there are cruisy runs too! You may have to pinch yourself looking out to the vast mountian vistas and Lake Wanaka. It is a stunning location!
Largely overlooked by tourists, Roundhill is a classic club field with many friendly kiwis keen to chat. It has lovely rolling slopes towered by the Heritage Express, the steepest and longest rope tow in the world! When open, this rope tow gives Roundhill the largest vertical drop in Australasia!
