Good morning and welcome to Whakapapa this Saturday!

We have a fine and clear morning to kick off our locals and Ngā Whakapapa members weekend. We are excited to let you know that we are skiing and riding on the lower carpet in Happy Valley (Carpet 3). Skiing and riding is FREE all weekend along with snowplay in Happy Valley. Kick off winter with friends and family this weekend. Dust off the skis and boards, warm up the arms and legs and get ready to throw snowballs, carve first turns of the season and make snow angels.

Sightseeing on the Sky Waka Gondola will open from 9am. While you wait to jump on the Gondola why not visit Lorenz's Bar and Cafe for a morning coffee, open from 8:30am.

We can't wait to welcome you today. This weekend promises to be magic.
