Sledding and Sightseeing
2025 WINTER SEASON IS YET TO START
Passes will be available to purchase from early May 2025.

Perfect for people who want to experience all of what winter has to offer, but without needing to get on skis or a snowboard.

Create your own winter memories with a 1.8km gondola ride above the snow on the Sky Waka gondola (wheelchair accessible) located at Whakapapa. Or for the kids and big kids, hire a sled and experience our dedicated sledding zones.

Sightseeing pass prices reflected below are online prices. Save $10 when purchasing your pass online ahead of time vs. on mountain.
