Whakapapa, 6km above Whakapapa Village in Tongariro National Park, has 30 groomed runs. There are plenty of snowboarding possibilities, cross-country, downhill and ski touring, and the highest lift access in the country. You can drive yourself up to the slopes or take a shuttle minibus from Whakapapa Village, National Park township, Taupo or Turangi.
Smaller Turoa has a beginners' lift, snowboarding, downhill and cross-country skiing. There's no road toll or parking fee and daily ski-area transport is available from Ohakune (16km away), which has the liveliest aprés-ski scene in the north.
Club-operated Tukino is on the eastern side of Mt Ruapehu. It's quite remote, 14km down a gravel road from the sealed Desert Rd (State Highway 1), and you need a 4WD vehicle to get in (or make a prior arrangement to use club transport). Because access is so limited the area is uncrowded, but most runs are beginner or intermediate
