Love the idea of community fitness but want to swap your running shoes for skis? 

Welcome to The Farm Ski at Snow Farm NZ!  

Inspired by the global "Park Run" phenomenon, The Farm Ski is a regular Saturday gathering of skiers of all ages where the only goal is to have fun, move your body, and enjoy the snow. It is not about being the fastest— it is about being part of the community.
