Ski New Zealand

LAND OF THE LONG, WHITE SLOPES

What is your idea of the perfect ski holiday? Great snow? Gentle slopes or thrilling steeps? A variety of resorts? A lively après scene and the backdrop of picturesque scenery? Look no further as New Zealand has all this plus more, making it an obvious magnet for Australian skiers and snowboarders looking for an overseas holiday experience with SKIMAX. The sheer majesty of New Zealand’s mountain landscape is spellbinding: flying into New Zealand and driving to and from the sky-piercing mountains takes you into a living postcard. New Zealand’s magnificent mountains offer some of the most exciting skiing and boarding in the world but they are only part of the reason for New Zealand’s increasing appeal of Australian skiers and boarders. It’s also about value for money. A Kiwi snow holiday is more affordable than ever! Package your flight with your accommodation, snow-ready hire car and ski passes and you will make incredible savings. The appeal of the South Island skiing hub of Queenstown, one of the most beautiful ski towns in the world, is stronger than ever. Fly direct to Queenstown or make the scenic six hour drive from Christchurch. Once in Queenstown, Coronet Peak and The Remarkables are just a short drive away, and

with all the other activities on offer, there is plenty to do to fill your days. Lakeside Wanaka is just over an hour’s drive from Queenstown and is a wonderfully scenic township that offers a quieter holiday. Treble Cone and Cardrona are popular ski fields easily accessible from Wanaka. You can easily plan a few days in each town if you want to experience both! Closest to Christchurch is Mt Hutt and its base camp Methven. Just ninety minutes drive from Christchurch, Methven is a quieter option with Mt Hutt offering the longest season and most reliable snow. After the day’s exertions, return to Methven where après ski activities are relaxed and fun with plenty of excellent restaurants, bars, friendly local pubs and entertainment. Situated in the heart of the North Island, Mt Ruapehu is home to arguably New Zealand’s biggest, longest and highest ski areas. Ski New Zealand’s only volcano on two ski areas that can be accessed with one lift pass; Whakapapa on the northwestern flanks of the mountain and Turoa on the south-west. Stay in Ohakune or the National Park, both of which offer easy access to the ski areas. The terrain at each is varied, vast and suitable for all skill levels. In the land of the long white slopes, the choice of ski experiences is all yours…

Ski Australia HOME-GROWN SKI HOLIDAYS Australia really is the lucky country. A land of sunshine and beautiful beaches in summer; a land of blue skies and snowy white trails in winter. Australia’s Snowy Mountains ranges in NSW and Victoria are home to world-class alpine resorts that offer great skiing and snowboarding from June to early October. Australia has five major resorts – Thredbo and Perisher in NSW, and Mt Buller, Mt Hotham and Falls Creek in Victoria. The secret to a successful Aussie ski holiday is planning. Regardless of whether you are a family, a couple looking for a romantic getaway, a hardcore skier or boarder, a single looking for après parties, or a beginner wanting to see snow

for the first time, SKIMAX’s expert staff can tailor a snow holiday to suits your desires. At SKIMAX, we choose the best accommodation options available in terms of quality, flexibility and facilities. We have a great range of hotels, lodges and self-contained apartments, and can help organise your transport (ie: flights and/or car rental), ski passes and equipment hire too. Australia’s resorts have invested heavily in ongoing upgrades and improvements for the 2012 season with snowmaking the focus. Indeed, Australia now has some of the most advanced snowmaking facilities in the world. Where will you be skiing or snowboarding this white Aussie winter?


Whether you’re permanently in powder or you’ve never felt snow before, New Zealand offers ski adventures that will keep you begging for “just one more run”. From north to south, there has never been a better time to book your New Zealand ski holiday with low-cost flights across the Tasman and value for money ski packages on offer throughout the countries premiere ski resorts.

Mt Buller-VIC

Mt Buller

EASY TO GET TO, SO HARD TO LEAVE!

Mt Buller is the most accessible resort in Australia. Located just 248km from Melbourne, no Australian snow resort is closer to a capital city or to an international airport. Vast and varied, Mt Buller’s slopes range from gentle groomed beginner and intermediate runs, to gladed tree runs and steep and deep chutes. The views are as spectacular as they are inspirational. With the most extensive snowmaking system in the Southern Hemisphere, Mt Buller is a natural playground. New for 2012 - Mt Buller is adding a new chairlift to the largest network of lifts in Victoria. Head to the northern slopes this winter and rediscover the great treelined runs on Burnt Hut.
