World-class ski instructor and snowboard instructor courses at Treble Cone New Zealand

From early June to late September, Treble Cone becomes a world mecca for a huge fraternity of snowboarders and skiers, as well as top international ski teams and professional snowboarders. This is the home of the New Zealand Rookie Academy,

Treble Cone offers a real New Zealand snow experience. Long uncrowded slopes, legendary off piste terrain and unrivalled views.

This expansive mountain has the longest vertical rise in the Southern Lakes with far reaching boundaries spread over two large basins. Mother Nature has taken care of the terrain sculpting fun gullies, wide faces and exciting undulating runs. The ski area covers two basins - the Saddle and Home basin. Both provide some of the best free riding in New Zealand and are famous for putting you on top of the Southern Alps with the outlook to match

All this adds up to a world-class location for the New Zealand Rookie Academy snowboard instructor and ski instructor courses, and ensures our students gain the highest degree of skill and technical ability.

The Season:

• June/July
  The fields open around 25th June. The snow is dry and the town is cranking over the school holiday period up until mid July.
• August
  The middle of the season, and the busiest. Reliable dry snow on a good base.
• September
  Again, one of the most reliable months for snow and the month locals ski most! Longer days and top to bottom cover on the fields. And no crowds.
• October
  The season ends, usually, in mid-October.
