Craigieburn Ski Area

Welcome to Craigieburn Ski Area, the non-profit community club located in New Zealand that is dedicated to providing an unforgettable skiing experience. With our range of activities, including hiking and environmental preservation, we aim to create a well-rounded and fulfilling experience for all our members and visitors.

At Craigieburn Ski Area, our slopeside accommodation serves as the seasonal home to a diverse community of snow addicts from all corners of the globe. It's a place where like-minded individuals come together to enjoy their shared passion for winter sports.

We take pride in our three high capacity rope tows, which provide access to a variety of exhilarating and challenging terrain for intermediate to advanced skiers and boarders. However, don't fret if you're a determined beginner – our slopes are also a fantastic place for you to learn and progress your skills.

When it comes to our ski area, we break away from the traditional groomed trails and embrace the excitement of “off-piste” skiing. This means our slopes resemble heli-ski runs, especially when we have fresh powder. The primitive lift system, featuring our nutcracker rope tows, sets us apart from other resorts. It not only keeps the crowds at bay but also ensures that you have the opportunity for more fresh tracks.

Our regular riders are accustomed to facing the rope, making loading onto the tows a breeze. And if you're a first-time user, don't worry – our friendly staff and club members are always on hand to assist you and make sure you have the best experience possible.

For those seeking even more adventure, the Craigieburn Range offers world-famous hiking and ski-touring opportunities. Whether you're an experienced skier looking for a thrilling challenge or a beginner looking to soak in the stunning scenery, Craigieburn Ski Area has something for everyone.

So come join us at Craigieburn Ski Area and experience the thrill of skiing in a unique and immersive environment. Our club is dedicated to providing an exceptional skiing experience for all outdoor enthusiasts, and we can't wait to welcome you to our slopes. See you on the hill!
