Temple Basin is an amazing ski and snowboarding area in the middle of
the NZ's Southern Alps, surrounded by the beauty of Arthur's Pass
National Park. It's club-based which means it's all about fun and good
times. People come to meet other people, enjoy the wonderful snow and
fantastic conditions, and they often have some of the best skiing or
boarding experience of their lives. In fact, many international boarders
rank it as one of the best areas in the world. Yet it's also friendly,
open to everyone (including kids - with popular supervised ski weeks
too) and not far from Christchurch. It's not for the faint- of-heart
because it's a bit of a hike up the hill from the main highway, but the
thrill of staying at a comfortable lodge, with chef, high up in the Main
Divide and then waking up, on what feels like the top of the world, is
well worth it.
