What should I wear when skiing or snowboarding in Wanaka?

When heading to the mountain in Wanaka, it is recommended to wear the following:

• Waterproof pants and jacket: Protect yourself from snow, wind, and moisture by wearing waterproof pants and a jacket.
• Warm hat: Keep your head warm with a hat that covers your ears.
• Waterproof gloves: Keep your hands dry and warm with waterproof gloves.
• Eye protection: Since UV levels are higher at altitude, it's essential to wear eye protection, such as sunglasses or goggles, to shield your eyes from the sun and glare.
• Sunscreen: Apply sunscreen to protect your skin from the sun, even on cloudy days.

• Layered clothing: Dress in layers, so you can adjust your clothing according to the temperature and your activity level.

If you forget any necessary gear, don't worry. You can rent jackets and pants on the mountain, and the Retail Store near the cafe offers gloves, goggles, hats, and other accessories for purchase. It's always better to be prepared and dress appropriately to ensure your comfort and enjoyment on the mountain.
