Tukino Alpine Sports Club

Hey sports community!

Hugh here from Tukino Alpine Sports Club (TASC) wants to give you all a warm welcome to our snowy haven! 🏂 Nestled on the eastern side of Mt. Ruapehu, TASC isn't just a club; it's your go-to spot for all things alpine—be it snow sports, tramping, rock climbing, or just soaking in those epic New Zealand views.

Planning a visit this winter? You'll need a 4WD to get to our lodge. No worries if you don’t have one—mountain transport can be sorted from the 2WD carpark. And if you're a member of the New Zealand Alpine Club, guess what? Your TASC membership is on us!

Our lodge? It’s comfy and budget-friendly, perfect for both members and casual visitors. We're big on being eco-friendly with constant upgrades to keep us green 🌿. And let’s not forget those killer views—from Mt. Ruapehu’s majesty to the Kaimanawa Ranges and Lake Taupo. It’s a sight to behold!

By becoming a TASC member, you’ll snag perks like discounted accommodation and ski passes. Or, keep in the loop with our events by signing up as a Friend of TASC and get our newsletters sent straight to your inbox. 📬

Heads up though, the Tukino Ski Field is taking a break for the 2023 winter season, but summer’s still in full swing with self-catered rates at the lodge. Summers can be a bit unpredictable, so gear up! And for those keen to lend a hand, we’re gearing up for our Summer Works Programme 2023/24—join us in keeping our lodge and skifield in top shape!

Hugh says, whether you’re hitting the slopes, climbing rocks, or just chilling out, TASC is the spot. Come for the adventure, stay for the stoke!

See you up there! 🚠
