If you are coming for the season then all the main resorts offer great skiing with modern infrastructure, lots of terrain, long runs and excellent snowmaking.

If you are travelling and just want to get a week or two on skis then Thredbo and Perisher are great if you are in or around Sydney. If you are down around Melbourne then Hotham and Falls are great and Buller is close enough to the city for a weekend trip.

The south island is a fantastic part of the world and is a must visit. Queenstown is also a great place to stay when doing some skiing down there. Wanaka is also brilliant with a small town feel to it compared to the bright lights of Queenstown. Which is best? It's a tough question, and really it is up to where you have the best contacts and which one you feel most at home in. Fly into Christchurch and get the bus down is very easy or fly into queenstown if you got it in the budget.

If you are looking for a ski instructor course one of the best is www.sitco.co.nz out of queenstown.

best of luck
