The Stats: Elevation: 1530m Where: 34km (40 mins) from Wanaka and 58km from Queenstown (about an hour via The Crown Range). What's The Snow Park really like? A very cool playground for skiers and snowboarders alike. In fact it's also a very cool day out for "spectators" too - you get a fantastic view of the goings-on over the whole park from the base facilities. The Woolshed is ideally placed for viewing and has a good menu, coffee and wine selection. There is a wicked sound system booming out over the park that can probably be heard at Cardrona if the wind was blowing in the right direction! The park has 100% snowmaking coverage from 33 fully automated guns and was voted '2005 Resort of the Year' by Boarderzone.com Riders' Choice. There are two superpipes, a quarter -pipe, extensive novice terrain, 40+ boxes, rails, hits and a great atmosphere. There is also on-field accommodation. A real favourite with a lot of the Browns crew. New for 2010:- Snow Park have introduced new Family Passes for Otago and Southland families. All season passes this year will also have free access to Snow Farm and give you a 20% discount at Treble Cone, Ohau and NZSKI.com resorts. This season there will also be an expanded night riding programme on Tuesday, Friday and Saturday nights. |
