The Remarkables Adds Scarpa Bowl to Its Inbounds Terrain

The Remarkables is adding new inbounds terrain for winter, bringing the Scarpa Bowl - known locally as the Toilet Bowl - into its lift-accessed network after years as backcountry-only ground. The roughly 500 metre run is reached by bootpacking from the top of the Sugar Bowl chairlift, with a shuttle picking skiers up from the road at the bottom. It's a smaller, faster addition than the resort's planned Doolans expansion, though the new terrain hasn't opened yet due to a lack of snow this season.

Freeride World Tour Qualifier Heads Back to The Remarkables in August

The North Face Frontier, a Freeride World Tour Qualifier event, is returning to The Remarkables in Queenstown from 28 August to 3 September. The event pairs a two-star qualifier at Shadow Basin for newcomers with a four-star event on the Alta Chutes, one step below the professional level. Now in its 21st year, the competition has produced past FWT champions including New Zealanders Jess Hotter and Ben Richards, and comes as freeriding heads toward its Olympic debut at the 2030 Alps Games.

New Zealand Snow Report: A Season-Starting Shot of Snow Arrives

New Zealand just got a reminder that winter means business. Coronet Peak, Mt Lyford, Mt Dobson, Mt Hutt, the Remarkables, and Treble Cone all picked up 11-12cm in the last 24 hours, with Cardrona adding 5cm. The commercial resorts are still finalising their opening dates, but snowfall like this has a way of accelerating those conversations. More snow is in the 14-day forecast - here's the full picture.

The Remarkables Could Become New Zealand's Largest Ski Area With NZD 150 Million Doolans Basin Expansion

NZSki has formally applied to expand The Remarkables into the Doolans Basin - a NZD 150 million-plus (USD 88.5 million) proposal that would grow the resort from 449 to 711 hectares and make it the largest single ski area in New Zealand. A 2.7km gondola, doubled visitor capacity, and four summers of construction. Here's what's on the table.
