Ohau Ski Field  Ohau Snow Fields and Lake Ohau Lodge PO Box 51, TWIZEL  Phone (3) 438-9885 http://www.ohau.co.nz ohau@ohau.co.nz Just 2 Hour Drive From Oamaru

 

Ohau, as part of the Ohau Range in the Main Divide, is endowed with reliable snowfall and fine weather. Ohau is serviced by the longest T-Bar in New Zealand, a platter and a fixed grip lift. The main trails are groomed regularly. 'The Boulevard' offers learner's and intermediates an easy and fun skiing or snowboarding experience from the top of the T-Bar down to the base facilities. The T-Bar also provides access to a wide variety of slopes suitably challenging for experts and exciting for intermediates. A very gentle slope, serviced by the fixed grip lift, is ideal for children and beginners. The platter lift is more exciting for the developing beginner From the 9.6km access road, the views up the valley to Mount Cook and overlooking the lake are spectacular with snatched glimpses of the snow field now and again before opening up to the full panaorama on arrival at the car park. Ohau is where people are important. If you have ever had a lesson at Ohau you will know that even though your lesson is over your instructor will still be reminding you across the slopes to keep your body facing down the mountain or to keep your hands foreward as you pass by - the lesson didn't stop after you had paid for your hours instruction. Because we're small, we're a personal place.
