Information

**Mōrena from a beautiful calm and clear Whakapapa.**It's a crisp morning on the maunga, with fine, clear weather forecast for an incredible day ahead on the slopes.From 9am, the Happy Valley beginner ski and snowboard area, and Snowland's snow play, sledding, and tubing zones will be open and ready for a day of winter fun.Further up the mountain, the Rangatira Chair, Sky Waka gondola, and Delta Chair will also be spinning from 9am for skiing and snowboarding.The big excitement today is the return of the Valley T-bar for the 2026 winter season! Our team is putting the finishing touches in place, and once final checks are complete, we're aiming to have it running by mid-morning.Blue skies, fresh snow, and more terrain opening, it's shaping up to be a fantastic day on the maunga. We can't wait to welcome you up the mountain. See you soon!
