Included Experience
Queenstown: Yup, we're here to help things run as smooth as possible (not as smooth as you on the slopes though - that's not possible).

ITINERARY

Start Queenstown
Welcome snow squad! Here in Queenstown we have one very clear and common agenda: the perfect week of powder. Whether you're a pro, mid range or beginner, the world-class terrain here is suitable for all skill levels and abilities, and we'll be testing out three of the Southern Hemisphere's best ski fields: Cardrona, Coronet & The Remarkables. Tonight, we'll start off by getting cosy over a team dinner and sharing our enthusiasm for the week of adventures ahead. Later on, it's our first chance to hit up the Queenstown nightlife - shall we start as we mean to go on?

Queenstown
It's our first day hitting the slopes, and today we've set our sights on the Cardrona Alpine Resort. Ready to start sharpening up your skills, or attempting to find new ones? With 40km (almost 25 miles) of slopes available, plus the Southern Hemisphere's most extensive terrain parks & pipes, you'll be spoilt for choice. Powder white below and blue skies above, this is going to be legendary.

Queenstown
Rise and shine! Today is dedicated to snow, snow and more snow. Though your body may be feeling the pinch, the mountains won't shred themselves! The best way to get through it is to get back out there - and today we're bound for the Coronet Peaks, the area's 'original' and most extensive ski resort, with views over Lake Wakatipu. Collapsing into bed tonight, we'll sleep soundly before our well-earned free day tomorrow.

Queenstown
Today we’ll take a break from the slopes… but not a break from the adrenaline! That’s right, on Day 4 you’ll get the chance to bungy jump off the third highest platform in the world, jump out of a plane with NZone Skydiving or, you know, chill out and get to know your new BFFs. Tonight, we’ll head to one of the town's lakefront bars, or you can opt for dinner at Skyline Restaurant, where you’ll enjoy a buffet and 360-degree views of Queenstown, Lake Wakatipu and the surrounding mountains. Don’t forget your camera.

Queenstown
Back to the slopes. And with two days left, it’s time to start making it count. Introducing the Remarkables: ranging from park to roller-coaster terrain, this Alpine resort boasts sun-filled bowls, world-renowned chutes and the Burton Stash - a one-of-its-kind concept park for the Southern hemisphere.

Queenstown
It's our final day, so let's make every moment count. For those of you who can't get enough of the powder, enjoy more free-time to ski and opt for a session to hit the slopes. Everyone else can explore the thriving city of Queenstown. There's loads to do here, so take your pick. Go hiking up the Tiki trail, try a famed fergburger, or take an inspiring day trip to the Milford Sound.

Queenstown
Our time in the snow may be over, but the memories will last forever. Time to take yourself back to where you belong, but make sure you swap numbers so you can relive the best parts of your Queenstown extravaganza. Same time next year?
