Mount Hutt / Methven

Mt Hutt

Located at the foot of Mount Hutt, Methven is a truly “amazing space” – absolutely buzzing with ski and board enthusiasts and après activities through the winter months.

 

Views from the top of Mount Hutt are breathtaking – on a clear day you can see all the way across the patchwork Canterbury plains to the Pacific Ocean in one direction, and into the heart of the Southern Alps in the other. Mount Hutt has one of the largest vertical drops in the South Island (2086m) and the greatest variety of terrain – from generous, wide groomed runs to double black diamond chutes.

 

Regarded as New Zealand’s true high country ski area, Mount Hutt has a laid back attitude and hospitality to match. The Kiwi atmosphere is evident everywhere, particularly in the parking lot where Cantabrians regularly set up portable BBQ's for an informal lunch. Facilities and service are world class with modern, high-speed chairlifts and a warm, modern base lounge.

 

This is the exclusive source of your hottest winter deals throughout the Methven region, where the après experience includes adrenaline-pumping jet boat rides, sky diving from 12,000ft and hot air balloon adventures.
