Layer up

Merino wool layers are your best friend on the slopes. They keep you warm when it’s chilly and cool when you’re working up a sweat. And don’t forget your weatherproof jacket—it’ll keep you dry and comfy, no matter what the weather throws at you.

stay Sunsafe

Even if it’s cloudy, don’t skip the sunscreen. Make sure it’s broad-spectrum to protect your skin from UV rays. Also, grab some SPF lip balm and sunglasses or goggles to protect your eyes. It’s an easy way to avoid sunburn and keep your skin and eyes safe while you’re out there shredding the slopes.

Safe & warm

Helmets are strongly recommended, even if you're just starting out. They’ll keep you safe in case of a fall and help keep your head warm. Trust us, it’s a small thing that makes a big difference when you’re out there having fun.

FAQ

Check out our most frequently asked questions

What do I need for my first time to Tūroa?

Booking a First Timer’s Package covers all the essentials, and we highly recommend adding a helmet rental for kids & adults. Weatherproof outerwear, gloves, sunscreen and eye protection are also essential for a comfortable day. You can rent weatherproof jackets and pants on the mountain, and our retail shop offers a selection of gloves and eyewear for purchase.

What should I bring with me for a day at Tūroa?

Winter conditions and weather on the mountain can change quickly. Rain or shine it's best to have waterproof outerwear, eye protection and sunscreen. If you arrive without something you need we have an extensive rentals and retail offering on the mountain. 

Where do I collect or drop off my rentals?

Rentals can be purchased online and collected on the mountain in Rentals, beside Guest Services. Rental equipment should be dropped off at the end of the day, unless you have a multi day booking. If you need to drop off equipment in Ohakune because the mountain is closed, you can do this at our town store at 27 Ayr street Ohakune.

Whats the best age to start skiing or snowboarding?

Some kids get on skis as soon as they can stand, and some people only start as adults so there's no right age to start. We take children in group lessons for skiing at 4 years old and snowboarding at 7 years old. For younger children you’ll need to book a private lesson.
