Find people to ride with at Whakapapa
Whakapapa is on the northern slopes of Mount Ruapehu, an active volcano in Tongariro National Park. Old lava flows create natural gullies, drops and ridges that make the terrain feel playful and unusual. As the North Island's biggest ski area, it draws riders from Auckland and Wellington looking for a weekend on the snow.
