Ohau Snow Fields ski area, Southern New Zealand

  Having such a sizeable terrain, 1,560 acres in all you will never be short of skiing land. This ski hill has a modest collection of slopes and quite few ski lifts. This ski hill has a much lower than average percentage of demanding runs and a much higher than average ratio of intermediate or beginner slopes. The annual snowfall is more or less average at this ski hill. The 1,404 feet of height difference is relatively all right; it's enough to get some decent time on the trails between lifts. This is an ordinary size
    ski mountain with a roughly average vertical drop if compared to other New Zealand ski hills. Great exercise and getting out of the house for a while will make you feel great. All the 8 trails here are totally enjoyable. The ice cold snow here becomes especially
deep, 12 feet every season, and that is one of the reasons this is such a delightful ski hill. All 3 different ski lifts at this ski mountain make for a relaxing ride up the hill. This ski area is a cozy ski area managed by friendly folks. The lovely prettiness of the Southern New Zealand mountaintops and all the fine runs have snow skiers coming from all over. The snow-white highlands of Southern New Zealand are something you can’t pass up if by chance you're keen on skiing and snowboarding. The ski run map of Ohau  
Snow Fields on this net page naturally says a thousand words. The skiing and the snowboarding in this region is loads of fun every day of the ski season. This is a magnificent spot for everyone with a lot of intermediate or beginner ski trails.
