About

Winter Snow to Sips – Canterbury Snow Landing 2026. Land in pristine alpine snow, then unwind fireside with hot chocolate at Terrace Downs Alpine Resort, this is winter done right. Lift off from Christchurch with Garden City Helicopters and escape to the snow-covered foothills of the Southern Alps. Touch down in a remote alpine setting where fresh powder, panoramic mountain views, and pure stillness create a moment that feels worlds away. Build a snowman, make snow angels, or simply take it all in. This is your time in the snow, your way. Then, trade snow boots for comfort as you arrive at Terrace Downs to warm up by the fire with a well-earned hot chocolate. Perfect for families, couples, and anyone chasing a true Canterbury winter.
