about us

Your gateway to mountain adventures

Since the 1960s, Te Horonuku has been more than just a lodge — it’s been a community.

 Perched right on the Whakapapa skifield, we’re a member-run ski club that brings together skiers, boarders, and mountain lovers who value connection, contribution, and life on the snow.

Whether you’re a first-timer or a lifelong local, there’s a bunk, a meal, and a warm welcome waiting for you here.
