Coronet Peak Ski and Snowboard Terrain Like many other New Zealand ski resorts , the Peak is not particularly large at only hectares and metres of vertical drop 1, — 1,m.

Most of the terrain is serviced by 2 high speed 6-seater chair lifts and an express quad chair. A T-bar and 4 surface conveyor lifts make up the rest of the fleet.

Coronet Peak Ski Resort is an excellent mountain for beginners and intermediates, and there are various groomed trails of varying pitch, including some relatively steep runs. Coronet Peak also has a little fun for advanced riders, pending adequate snow cover. In addition to the official trails there are various off-piste runs around the fringes of the resort and a few chutes. Pack the Glucosamine and Ibuprofen, because the cartilage in your knees may need it!

The minimal snowfall is not an issue for most punters. Thankfully this Queenstown ski resort can operate on a very small base because there are only grassy tussocks under the snow. Combined with quality grooming, a good aspect, lots of fences for snow farming, and very extensive snow making, the Coronet Peak snow cover on the trails is generally fine.

The terrain is treeless, so the ski field and the snow are exposed to the elements. A lack of trees usually poses problems with visibility on poor weather days, but thankfully there are lots of yellow snow guns to guide the way, and weather at Coronet Peak is relatively stable compared to ski resorts further north such as Mt Hutt aka Mt Shut.
