TREBLE CONE
Spread over three large basins there are trails to suit all ages and skill levels.
From the purpose-built learner area with a Magic Carpet Lift, to comfortable, groomed green and blue runs, through
challenging black runs and secret powder stashes, Treble Cone has great terrain for all levels of ability. The
learners area with snowmaking facilities is located near the base building, the wide, gentle slope has an easy
gradient and is groomed every night. This is serviced by an easy-to-use platter lift. Two trails - 'Triple Treat'
(3.5km) and 'Main Street' (2km) - provide long, well-groomed slopes for beginners and intermediates along with
many other groomed runs. Earthworks over Summer 2005 have created a NEW Upper High Street which now extend Treble
Cones longest groomed run to 4.5km. These runs are all serviced by either the high-speed six-seater detachable
chairlift or NEW quad chairlift. Treble Cone offers more intermediate and advanced terrain than any other South
island ski area with off-piste powder skiing and boarding unrivalled. Treble Cone continues to offer the greatest
freeriding terrain in the region for snowboarders. There are natural half pipes on the upper mountain and a
terrain park is built each year.
