Skiing in the Queenstown area

Listed under Skiing in South Island, New Zealand.

Queenstown is situated on the shores of Lake Wakatipu in the southern part of New Zealand's South Island. There is fantastic skiing and snowboarding in this area including Coronet Peak, the Remarkables and Treble Cone - all with great runs and beautiful scenery. Conditions are best in August.
