Ski into Winter Wonderland with Peppers Bluewater Resort
Roundhill ski fields
Winter is well and truly here, turning New Zealand into a ski bunny’s paradise. Situated close to three of the South Island’s most popular ski fields, Peppers Bluewater Resort Lake Tekapo is the ultimate après ski resort.
From Peppers Bluewater Resort Lake Tekapo, it’s just 35 minutes to Roundhill Ski Field, 50 minutes to Mt Dobson and 80 minutes to Lake Ohau Snow Fields – some of the finest snowfields in New Zealand’s Southern Alps.
Kick off the winter season in style and luxury with Peppers Bluewater Resort, Lake Tekapo and a two-night Ski Bunny Escape for two. Choose from $258* per night for a Deluxe Lake View room or $278* for a one bedroom Mountain View Villa. On arrival you will be presented with two lift passes for Roundhill ski fields and each morning you will be fuelled up for the day with breakfast for two at Peppers’ signature Rakinui Restaurant.
Roundhill offers easy access, an extensive snowmaking system providing great snow cover and a diverse terrain mix including Australasia’s biggest vertical drop - a whopping 783 metres! Mt Dobson and Lake Oahu also cater for all abilities with miles of both developed trails and off piste tracks for the more adventurous.
Peppers Bluewater Resort is set against a backdrop of the stunning turquoise-blue waters of Lake Tekapo and the snow-capped mountains of the Southern Alps. The 142 stylish rooms are all designed drawing inspiration from the majestic surrounding landscape.
After an adrenalin filled day on the slopes, kick back in your spacious apartment at Peppers Bluewater Resort Lake Tekapo, the perfect base to relax or explore the surrounding area.
Lake Tekapo offers numerous activities including day trips to Tekapo Springs, the perfect tonic for tired and sore muscles, flights with Air Safaris over magnificent Mt Cook and the Mackenzie countryside and star gazing at the clearest night sky in the Southern Hemisphere above Mt John Observatory with Earth and Sky.
