Coronet Peak

The closest ski resort to Queenstown, Coronet Peak has some of the best free riding terrain in New Zealand. The high capacity lift facilities cater for a large number of skiers and boarders.

Long groomed runs make the riding style smooth and fast, and the snowmaking facilities ensure that there is a solid snow base from early in the season. Coronet Peak is a great mountain for the introduction to off piste and backcountry riding with moderate gradient snow lines to select. After heavy snowfalls an endless dimension of backcountry exploring opportunities opens up.

Coronet Peak has conducted a 20 million dollar upgrade of facilities during the summer of 2007 / 08. The mountain now has one of the most extensive Snowmaking systems in the world and the base building facilities provide the highest possible standard of comfort and service.
