Queenstown Superpass 2 Day Lift Pass: The Queenstown Superpass is the most flexible lift pass in the Southern Lakes, giving you access to ski and ride Queenstown’s closest mountains – Coronet Peak and The Remarkables.
The Remarkables Ski Field: Located just 45 minutes from downtown Queenstown, The Remarkable’s features a fantastic network of trails with wide, gentle slopes for beginners of all ages and big mountain runs for experts.

This theme park created by mother nature offers gripping trails for skiers and riders. Coronet is also home to night skiing; for a different take on these roller coaster trails, try it under lights!
Après Ski in Queenstown is hard to beat, choose from a range of exclusive bars and restaurants.
Today is spent at your leisure, either relaxing and perhaps indulging in one of the spa treatments on offer, or adding another activity from the wide array available in Queenstown. Options range from private cruises on Lake Wakatipu to more adrenaline-fuelled activities such as sky diving or hot air ballooning.
A top choice is a day trip to Milford Sound by a fixed-wing plane. Upon reaching Milford Sound, you will enjoy a 2.5 hour Milford Sound Nature Cruise.
With specialist nature guides on board, Real Journeys Nature Cruises offer a close-up experience of Milford Sound’s rainforest, soaring rock walls, towering snow-capped mountains, cascading waterfalls, hanging valleys and wildlife… words just don’t do it justice, you have to see it for yourself! Throughout the cruise, the guides share stories of the fiord’s history and are happy to answer your questions.
After your cruise, relax on the flight while your pilot delivers you back to Queenstown.
You may like to ski a third day at Coronet or The Remarkables, indulge in any Queenstown activity or night ski Coronet Peak at dusk.
