Mt Hutt
There’s a reason Mt Hutt has won New Zealand’s Best Ski Resort three years in a row at the World Ski Awards; legendary powder days, leg burning runs and true Kiwi hospitality. Canterbury’s own Mt Hutt is New Zealand’s best high country, high altitude ski resort.
Mt Hutt has long been the local’s favourite mountain, and somewhat of a hidden secret, until now. With its wide groomed runs and top to bottom terrain parks, world class jumps and some of the best off-piste skiing around, Mt Hutt is New Zealand skiing and boarding at its best.
Located in the middle of the South Island, Mt Hutt is only 90 minutes from Christchurch. Choose Methven as the base for your next ski holiday, only a short 35 minute drive from Mt Hutt and you will discover a small, but lively rural town surrounded by breathtaking scenery.
