الوصف
Ride the Sky Waka gondola over Whakapapa's volcanic terrain. Enjoy panoramic views, dine at the Knoll Ridge Chalet, and explore the heart of New Zealand’s North Island on foot.
Some views you have to earn. This one, you simply ride up to.
Soar above the snowfields of Mt Ruapehu on the Sky Waka gondola — a breathtaking 1.8km journey that lifts you from the base of one of New Zealand's most iconic volcanoes to a world of ice, cloud, and silence at 2,020 metres above sea level.
Whakapapa is no ordinary mountain. Sitting at the heart of the North Island's volcanic plateau, Mt Ruapehu is a living, breathing giant — sacred to Māori as a powerful ancestor, and legendary among adventurers for its raw, otherworldly beauty. In winter, draped in a thick white coat of snow and ice, it becomes something truly magical.
Whether you're a skier taking a scenic break, a family chasing their first snow experience, or a traveller simply wanting to stand on top of a volcano and feel the cold bite of alpine air — the Sky Waka gondola delivers one of the most spectacular rides in New Zealand.
On arrival at 2020m, be welcomed to the Knoll Ridge Chalet offering different food and beverage options, with views extended out across the maunga (mountain) and Central Plateau.
