Rainbow ski area, New Zealand, South Island

  There are 5 lifts here, and they are in splendid shape. A 320 foot drop is naturally not that much, but Rainbow compensates for it by other means.

The annual snowfall is about average at this ski area. Rainbow has a much lower than average ratio of expert and advanced slopes and a much higher than average fraction of easy trails. This is a small-size
    ski mountain in possession of a relaxed drop if compared to other Southern Hemisphere ski areas. All the 12 trails here are amusing to ski on. The beautiful snow here gets incredibly deep, 16 feet every year, and that is one of the greatest marks of this ski mountain.
