Snow Farm
In New Zealand, Cross Country skiing is still a small sport, but Cross Country skiers in New Zealand are blessed with 55km of the most well prepared trails in the world. It is the Snow Farm's goal, not to be just one of the best X-C resorts in the world, but to one day be considered the best Cross Country Resort in the world.
At our Alpine Lodge, we can house over 70 guests with both ensuite and shared facility rooms, all of which are "walk out the door skiing". Being the best doesn't mean just having the best trails, of which we do aspire to, we wish to have the best off trail facilities as well. Ski classic or skate on groomed trails, or choose from kilometer after kilometer of off track bliss on the Pisa Range.
Skiing
Snow Farm track standard rivals the best tracks in the Northern Hemisphere with classic and skating lanes on all trails. Trails have been designed for all levels of Cross Country skiers. The trails wind through the Meg River Valley to the North and the South with views of the Southern Alps contrasting with the rolling slopes. The normally light dry snow makes for excellent skiing.
The main season is from the beginning of July to the end of September. Events are held during the season and cater for all levels from the citizen skier to the international racer. If you are young or old, beginner or expert there is skiing for you at Snow Farm.

Trails
55 kms of trails have been summer groomed and snow fenced to give the best possible trail conditions. All trails are fenced to catch snow and protect it from the sun ensuring a long and plentiful season...
All trails are accessible from the lodge. A newly designed access through the ski hire will take the skier directly on to Main Street without the inconvenience of trudging up or down hills. Improved viewing for spectators from this area has been included in the design.
