We will be most likely be OPEN on Friday with some fresh snow. Snow is forecast for Saturday too! Spaces are filling up quickly for the weekend and beyond, so make sure you get your spot as several storms approach. Check out your options on our website and email us at bookings@brokenriver.co.nz PLEASE NOTE- the towlines are narrow and thin. We cannot accomodate beginner nutcracker riders at this time. It is not fun for beginners to learn in these conditions. Please, experienced tow riders and advanced skiers/boarders only! Thank you- BR Staff Access to the field is a 20 minute walk from the top of the tram to Palmer Lodge. The tram hours are 8:30 am to 10:30 am and 3:30 pm to 5:30 pm.
