Cardrona Ski Resort is a pristine destination for world-class skiing in the Oceania region of the world. Part of Wanaka, New Zealand, Cardrona is incredibly successful at bringing in leisure enthusiasts, as well as veterans. However, this renowned spot is more famous for attracting Winter Olympic and X-Game snow athletes to its slopes in the masses. Known as the most popular ski area in New Zealand, there are well-built wide trails, challenging chutes, and a terrain park allowing freestyle practitioners to try their best stunts.

Chondola cabins are a unique term here and are an amalgamation of the traditional cabin and oft-used gondola, typically seating eight at a time. On mountain apartments, cafes, and restaurants are prevalent for accommodating those wishing to stay for a few days or even just one night. Just a short drive away, there is considerable nightlife and restaurants offering an amazing social experience in Queenstown.

With all the unique opportunities available to travelers looking to catch slopes in New Zealand, they will be hard-pressed to find a better spot. But it's time to hop back across the world to a destination offering an excellent skiing line and strong social justice practice no traveler wants to miss.
