Christchurch, the Garden City, and the Canterbury region are the perfect destination for daredevils. From northern Kaikoura to Waimate in the south, Canterbury is an adventure sports paradise. Hangliding, helibiking, bungee jumping, snowboarding, jetboating, rafting and skydiving get the adrenaline going. Golfing, flightseeing, swimming with dolphins and soaking in thermal pools are more laid-back temptations. Christchurch, a city of parks and gardens, is the countrys third largest urban area.

Ski The Tasman is an air-accessed adventure on to New Zealand’s longest glacier. Every fine winter day (July - September) Alpine Guides take small groups of skiers on this unique mountain journey. Operating only in Mount Cook National Park - there is nowhere else on Earth you can come on a daily ski plane-accessed ski day.If making turns amongst New Zealand's highest peaks isn’t enough, exploring incredible ice caves, seracs, and canyons makes Ski The Tasman truly unforgettable.
We had a spectacular day Skiing the Tasman Glacier with Alpine Guides on Aug 12th 2020 - The Walker Group ;-) . All 10 of us were blown away by the scale of the place. Our guide Lewis was great, very knowledgable about the mountains and the glacier. The weather could not have been better either. Didn't expect first tracks in very nice powder particularly on the 2nd run. Everyone should add this to their bucket list. You do not have to be an expert to ski this, intermediate skiers will handle it easily.

Temple Basin is an amazing ski area in the middle of New Zealand's Southern Alps, in Arthurs Pass National Park.It's Club-based which means it's all about fun and good times. International press has rated it one of the best snowboarding areas in the world. It's not for the faint hearted, because there is a hike up the hill but once there the accommodation is right beside the lifts
