How much does it cost to ski in Wanaka, Otago Region, South Island, New Zealand | Resorts: Cardrona Alpine Resort (34 km) and Treble Cone (19 km)?

Do you really need to make a reservation before arriving?

How much does it cost to ski near Wanaka (Cardrona / Treble Cone)?

The combined day pass for Cardrona and Treble Cone starts at NZD 184 (official reference price), with discounts of up to NZD 15 when purchased online.

Is it worth booking with CaranvaSports instead of directly with the resort?

The difference lies in what you don’t see until you arrive: equipment inspected before every delivery (not a generic batch), a local shop instead of a station counter, and everything — helmet, boots, fitting — handled in the same place.

And if something goes wrong while you’re at Wanaka, Otago Region, South Island, New Zealand | Resorts: Cardrona Alpine Resort (34 km) and Treble Cone (19 km), you have someone to call, not a centralized customer service department hours away.

As soon as you confirm the booking, you’ll receive the store’s exact address in Wanaka, Otago Region, South Island, New Zealand | Resorts: Cardrona Alpine Resort (34 km) and Treble Cone (19 km) by email.

It happens more often than you might think. Every store in Wanaka, Otago Region, South Island, New Zealand | Resorts: Cardrona Alpine Resort (34 km) and Treble Cone (19 km) has its own cancellation or date-change policy, and you can see it clearly before paying anything — it’s not hidden in the fine print.

If your situation doesn’t fit the standard policy, write to us and we’ll find the solution that works best for you.

Why is the price reliable rather than an estimate?

Because we compare several Wanaka, Otago Region, South Island, New Zealand | Resorts: Cardrona Alpine Resort (34 km) and Treble Cone (19 km) stores in advance, what you see when booking already includes equipment and extras, with no charges that appear later in the store.

I’m not sure what level to request in Wanaka, Otago Region, South Island, New Zealand | Resorts: Cardrona Alpine Resort (34 km) and Treble Cone (19 km) — how do I choose?

Based on real experience, not on what you would like to be:

If you have never skied or it has been years since you last did — stable equipment designed so you do not feel intimidated on your first runs.

If you can already turn and brake without thinking — something lighter and faster for red runs.

If you ski down any run without hesitation — demanding equipment for those seeking control at speed.

If you compete or train seriously — slalom, giant slalom, or freeride equipment, only for highly advanced skiers.

And depending on how you like to ski

Piste skis for the usual runs, all-mountain if you combine groomed snow with outings off-piste, freeride for untouched snow, freestyle for the snow park, and children’s/junior equipment adjusted by age.

With your level and discipline clear, booking at Wanaka, Otago Region, South Island, New Zealand | Resorts: Cardrona Alpine Resort (34 km) and Treble Cone (19 km) takes just a couple of clicks.

Is it cheaper to rent for several days?
