Manganui is Taranaki's snowboard and ski area featuring small beginner/intermediate, and larger off-piste adventure-type intermediate/advanced terrain.

Manganui Ski Area is accessed from Upper Pembroke Road, passing by Ngati Ruanui Stratford Mountain House and on to the Plateau Carpark.  Expect a reasonably uphill scenic walk from the car park to the skifield which will take approximately 20-25m but there is a Flying Fox lift shortly after the start of the walk to take your equipment to the ski field for you.

Manganui Ski Area has three rope tows and a T-bar covering a beginner-intermediate terrain of 59ha catering to all abilities and self-catering accommodation is available at The Manganui Lodge. 

Visit the website to check as to whether the field is open as well as conditions for the walk to the ski area.
