ALL groups are welcome to use the lodge. The indoor climbing wall, pool table, TV, and the large selection of games and books are all there for use after a hard day on the snow or for when the mountain weather is just not up to your standard.
Users of the lodge are expected to take their turn in cooking and general housekeeping during their stay.
Ruapehu Alpine Lifts (RAL) offer generous discounts on ski/snowboard hire, lessons and lift passes. Just organise what your group will need each day, contact the RAL Groups Coordinators at the start of the ski season to make a booking and get some cheap skiing.
