Get over here you Aussies! With the AUD:NZD at 1.21 and the mighty Southern Alps at your doorstep, you won’t be disappointed taking a 3hr flight east. And did we mention heli-skiing the Arrowsmiths with our good friends Methven Heliski?! 🤔

Most Aussies flock to Queenstown and Wanaka, but there's a wilder, more rewarding ski experience waiting in Canterbury.
