Treble Cone, New Zealand
Introduction
Treble Cone is half an hour from the town of Wanaka and provides some incredible terrain, on and off piste in a major scenic place.

With 40% advanced terrain, Treble is known as one of New Zealands more testing and challenging resorts that competent freeriders and freestylers should love and be able to go home with a few stories to tell after tackling some major steeps, long chutes and deep powder bowls on some gnarly black faces
