Women's Backcountry Skills Day ($199)

September 20th | Treble Cone, Wānaka | Full Day Ski Touring/Splitboarding

Head into the Treble Cone backcountry with our IMFGA/NZMGA-certified female guides for a full day of ski touring/splitboarding. This is your chance to explore beyond the resort boundaries for the first time or progress your backcountry skills further.

Choose your group:

• Foundational – Perfect for first-timers. Learn the basics of ski touring and splitboarding: gear setup, skinning technique, and essential backcountry safety.
  

• Intermediate/Advanced – For those with  experience. Focus on movement efficiency, smart terrain selection, and advanced touring techniques for travelling in more complex terrain.
  

With small group sizes (max six participants per guide), you’ll enjoy plenty of personal guidance and time to practice. The day will be based in Wānaka’s stunning alpine environment, with Treble Cone backcountry as our playground (weather dependent).
