Group Size
We have limited the size of this trip to a maximum of 10 guests. This is a much smaller group than previous trips - meaning more one on one time to progress your skills.
Food
Queenstown is home to some of the best cafés, restaurants, and bars around. We’ve included one group dinner in the package for a fun night out together, during the other nights, we will explore the town as there are plenty of delicious food options & bars walking distance from our accomodation. If you prefer a cozy night in, our accommodation features a spacious kitchen for home-cooked meals. You will be responsible for supplying your own breakfasts & lunches on the mountain. There is a grocery store in town where we can buy breakfast foods if you wish to cook at home. We will provide snacks you can bring on the mountain.
On Mountain Guiding
Each day our guides will show you around Coronet Peak & The Remarkables fostering a safe and supportive environment with heaps of tips & encouragement. Please note that our guided sessions are not lessons, rather a time where the group can ride together, receive tips from our guides & support each other on the slopes. The camaraderie & encouragement during these sessions is the most special part of riding together. It’s also the most perfect environment to gain confidence on the slopes and improve your skills.
Travel Insurance
It is a requirement that each guest takes out their own comprehensive travel insurance that covers for snow sports. We require proof of insurance 30 days prior to the start of the trip.
Itinerary
An in-depth itinerary will be provided closer to the dates. Our first ski/snowboard day will be Wednesday the 3rd of September.
Meet your host
Hi, I’m Steph! An Aussie surfer and snowboarder that loves to empower women with everything I do. I've spent the last two northern hemisphere winters riding the slopes of Whistler, working on my own riding skills and hosting community snow events. I am a CASI Level 2 & Park 1 snowboard instructor & there's nothing I love more than allowing others to experience the magic of snow sports. In 2019 I founded Groove Girls as a way to connect women & provide a space of encouragement through our community Group Surfs. Over the past 3+ years, I have been hosting Groove Girls Surf Retreats and Snow Trips within Australia, New Zealand & Japan, creating a safe and supportive environment and bringing women together from all over the world. My goal is to help women step outside their comfort zones, believe in themselves, pursue all the things they've always dreamed of doing & have fun whilst doing it!
