Coronet Peak Ski Area

Coronet Peak is the closest ski field to Queenstown and can be accessed by a sealed roads that lead all the way to the lifts for added convenience. The mountain terrain is wide and rolling. The main trails are well-groomed and replenished with regular snowmaking.

The skiable area totals 280 hectares and is accessed by 3 chairlifts, beginners tows and 1 T-bar. No matter your level of experience, Coronet Peak Ski Area offers fun and thrills for all.
