Whakapapa Holdings Limited

Whakapapa Holdings Limited, our new operator are settling into their new role operating the mountain. We have recently met with the new owners and some old faces. We can assure you all that the team have an extremely positive approach to the clubs, and to the local community, and they will be working very hard to promote snow sports at Whakapapa for all of us.

The season will open when the snow arrives! Hopefully in time for the school holidays! But in the meantime you need to plan ahead, and get ready! Buy your seasons pass and 3 seasons passes before the 8th of June!



A Little Present from WHL for season pass purchasers!


In a gesture to clubs, as members we can enter the code CLUBFREEZE at the online checkout when buying a season pass and whether or not you bought a pass last year you get that discount. That is a saving of $100 for Adults & Students, $50 for Seniors (65+) and Youth off the season pass price!! There may be checks on the discount code to ensure you are a club member.



Free Season pass for 10 and under


Season Passes are Free for 10years and under! It is easy, you just apply on line and get a pass.



Three Season pass


The club has access to a number of 3 seasons passes available for those who wish to get one. $999 for adults and $699 (for 17 and under). That is the next 3 years of skiing and riding for $333 or $233 per year!!!

Pay half this year and half next year and nothing in the third year. Get in touch with us ASAP if you want one by emailing committee@wssc.co.nz. If you are non-member you need to join the club first and we will hook you up!



We hear you around Chair lift access


The committee will be pushing hard for at least “limited chair lift access”. Up at on foot or skis at any time with a pass. We will also request a down “window” for a limited time such as, at the end of the day for say a 20min window and the start of the day say 20min window to get people to Happy Valley for lessons and to pick up stores etc…



NIPs - North Island Primary School Ski Champs


It’s on this year, so book the club, it is available to be booked out! It’s an awesome few days of fun for the kids and parents alike. We will have a host at the hut during these events to help out!
