 Situated high in The Remarkables mountain range and surrounded by craggy peaks, The Remarkables Alpine Park provides a spectacular, true alpine environment.
Extending over 700 hectares of reserve land, there’s 220 skiable hectares accessed by three quad chairs within three sunny, wide open bowls.
From the first timer through to those who like to be challenged by narrow chutes, rock drops and off-piste powder, The Remarkables is all about fun, families, freestyle and the love of the big mountain environment.
 For backcountry lovers, the 1.5km Homeward Bound is considered the best in-bounds backcountry run, and a short walk from the Shadow Basin Chair delivers access into the chutes’ amazing big mountain terrain. For the not-so-serious, slide down groomed tracks on specifically designed inner-tubes in The Ozone Tubing Park – a must for pure fun seekers.
New for 2008, “The Stash” project – a Burton signature terrain park, the first in the Southern Hemisphere, adds a kilometre long feature packed “back-country park experience”. This complements the existing 150m FIS specification Parklife Superpipe, FruJu Beginner Park and UP & GO Terrain Park. The Remarks is a true freestyle haven with jibs for all levels.
 Further up the slopes, a progressive network of terrain parks includes the Tararua Real Iced Coffee (TRIC) Beginner/Novice Terrain Park, the larger, world-class Dirty Dog Terrain Park and the Southern Hemisphere's first Stash, an evolutionary, revolutionary Burton signature park. Lift served and hikeable terrain offers challenging excitement for free skiers and riders, completing the versatility of the alpine resort.
Snowmaking capacity has also been increased on main trails. There’s an award winning ski and snowboard school, café, retail shop and equipment hire, and regular live music on the deck and tunes in the parks add to the relaxed atmosphere.
Just a 45-minute drive from Queenstown, The Remarkables brand new 4x4 coaches and transport system means you can leave the car at home and travel stress free.
