South Island - Mount Olympus
Mt Olympus is a unique alpine experience. New Zealand's unrivaled skiing and boarding, irrepressible club spirit and spectacular New Zealand scenery make Olympus an unforgetable adventure.
There is a beginners tow at the top of the access tow close to the lodge. From the top of the Main Tow and the Top Tow there are plenty of choices with terrain to suit intermediates or the most advanced skiers.
A little walking from the Top Tow opens up even more terrain in this wide open bowl. With the relatively low skier numbers and the choice of terrain, it can take up to a week to get tracks on some slopes.
Come and enjoy our friendly and affordable ski area for a day, weekend or week, and let us show you the Sourthern Alps best kept powder secret.
