Sorry CLOSED.
Unfortunately the weather has not played ball for us on the mountain and we have had to suspend operations until we get more snow. We still have a base in places just need a bit more to join the dots. Looks like more snow coming at the end of the week.
If you still want to explore the mountains Lake Stella Mountain Retreat is OPEN and gives exclusive access to explore the mountains and stay on a mountain lake AT 1260m with your own wood fired hot tub. lakestella.co.nz
Mt. Lyford's sunny Terako field, is located 26 km's from Waiau and 60 km's from Hanmer. An ideal family field, Terako is a great learners area with challenging runs for intermediate and advanced skiers. The Day Lodge/restaurant and carpark are centrally located.
Skiers and riders have access to 450m vertical drop from the top of Mt Terako. Lifts include one advanced rope tow, two platters and one T-bar. Take a spin through the Wild Ride Terrain Park before heading to the Terako Day Lodge.
