Queenstown & Wānaka Snow Report 1 July 2026

We're back with this week's Queenstown & Wānaka Weekly Snow Report ⛷️ Opening weekend delivered❄️ Last week's storm delivered 10-15cm of snow, and the mountains are looking good to kick off the season. A front is rolling in on Friday night, with snow forecast at ski resorts over the weekend. It's all happening across the mountains. Cardrona Alpine Resort has McDougall's Chondola and McPark terrain park open, and cold overnight temps are keeping the on-piste snow in great shape. At Coronet Peak, the Coronet Express and Meadows Chairlifts are spinning for top-to-bottom skiing, with First Tracks running daily from 8–9am, Night Ski kicking off tonight, and Kids Day Out on 4 July. Over at The Remarkables, Alta Chairlift and Sugar Bowl Express are now open, and fresh rails and boxes have been added to the terrain park. Keep an eye on Treble Cone Ski Area for opening updates, as they will be ready to go as soon as nature delivers. Tune in to the full Queenstown & Wānaka Snow Report for all the mountain updates and what's on.
