Three skiers stand on a snowy slope, engaged in conversation. One person, dressed in bright red ski gear and holding skis, appears to be an instructor. The other two skiers, one in a tan jacket with green skis and the other in a purple jacket with pink skis, listen attentively. All are wearing helmets and ski goggles, and they have their ski poles in hand. Behind them, a ski lift is visible with people riding up the mountain, and snow-capped peaks stretch under a clear blue sky.

"Amazing value"

Ease of access and speed of picking up rental equipment. Also, the kids’ “First Timer” Package of lessons, ski hire, lift pass and gear hire was amazing value.

Frequently
Asked Questions

Full-day lesson packages are available only at Cardrona. If you’d like a lesson at Treble Cone, explore our private lesson options. You can find more information here.

Yes, you will be able to, up to 7 days in advance, subject to the capacity available on the day you want to reschedule to. You’ll need to contact our team to do so and may need to pay a price difference if the new day you’re choosing is at a higher rate.

If the mountain is closed on the date(s) you selected to use your lift pass, rental equipment, or lesson, please contact our team or drop into our Queenstown Town Office or Après in Wānaka, and we’ll reschedule your package to be used at another date. If no other dates work for you, we will provide you with a refund.

We would always recommend collecting your gear and passes in-advance from one of our off-mountain locations to save you time when you arrive on the mountain (head straight to the snow or get a coffee!). We have a town office in Queenstown, as well as a mountain hub in Wānaka called Après, where you can collect rentals (see our locations here). Alternatively, you can collect rentals on-mountain from the rentals department.

If capacity allows, we can move your lesson to a new date, given 48hrs notice. If you would like to amend your lift pass date, please provide 7 days’ notice. Contact our Call Centre team on 0800 440 800 or email info@cardrona-treblecone.com to enquire. 

During our peak period (NZ/ Aus school holidays), we are likely to have limited availability. If you need to amend your date, we suggest reaching out as soon as possible to avoid disappointment. 

On the mountain already and want to enquire about amending the date on a future booking? Come into the Ticket Office and see us!

If you would like a shorter lesson or would prefer a different start time, take a look at our Private Lessons. Available for 1.5hrs, 2hrs, 3hrs & 6hrs, they give you a one-on-one learning environment, specifically focused on your goals and learning preferences. 

Your time is maximised using our private lesson’s priority lane, plus you can add additional guests to your private lesson if they are of a similar ability to you. Private lessons must be booked in advance - popular times and dates sell out regularly.
