Information
It's looking like a bluebird day up at Broken River! The coverage is the best it's been all winter. We have received over a half meter of snow in the last two weeks. All of our terrain is open including Allan's Basin. There is soft, dry, chopped up powder on southerly-facing slopes. Slopes that face east, like Sunny Face, will soften nicely with today's sun. For the full club field experience, stay with us and enjoy waking up to beautiful mountain views, and being first one up on the mountain. Check out your options on our website and book your accomodation by emailing bookings@brokenriver.co.nz No beginnner tow riders on the Access Tow. Please walk to Palmer Lodge and practice on the Learner Tow progressing to the Traverse Tow and then the Rugby Tow. Tram hours are 8:30 am to 10:30 am and 3:30 pm to 5:30 pm.
