Maunganui

Mt Taranaki is exactly what kids think when you say “volcano” – it looks like the homecoming king from a geography textbook. Maunganui itself is something of a split personality; cruisy blue runs off the lower T-bar, slackcountry and advanced runs off the higher rope tow.

Rainbow

Rainbow is a classic Kiwi ski resort: a huge bowl with a T-bar up the centre and hiking along either ridge. Parents can relax outside the cafe and still keep a beady eye on their groms anywhere in the field.
