Snow Farm NZ

Welcome to Snow Farm, New Zealand's home of cross country skiing! Snow Farm is currently closed for the 2023 winter season, but our Alpine Huts are still available for booking. Unfortunately, bag transfers are not offered during spring.

During the summer months, our Alpine Huts can be booked, except for in November when trail conditions are most fragile. Please note that Snow Farm will be closed during this time. Exclusive bookings are allowed one support vehicle until April 1st.

For those looking for summer activities, we have a network of 55 km of trails that are perfect for biking excursions. You can enjoy car-free trail rides, from easy leisurely rides to more adventurous trails. For incredible views, head up past the meadow hut to the kirtle burn trail and the summit of Mt Pisa to overlook Lake Dunstan. Make sure to contribute to our trail maintenance by using the provided link.

If you're visiting during winter, we offer a range of activities for everyone. Our Snow Fun Zone is a dedicated snow play area filled with tubes and snow, where you can slide down hills, build snowmen, and even have a snowball fight to settle any family disputes! We also have snowshoeing and cross country skiing available, perfect for first-time snow enthusiasts. Make sure to book online before your visit to secure your spot, as our activities have limited availability.

Our Alpine Huts are located between four and six kilometres from the base area, and can be accessed by skis or snowshoes in winter, and on foot or mountain bikes in summer. This offers a unique alpine experience for those looking to stay overnight.

Some of our visitors have shared their experiences with us, praising our friendly and well-organised staff, as well as the enjoyable activities provided at Snow Farm.
