COMMERCIAL SHOOTING / FILMING

With spectacular views across the Southern Alps and Lake Wanaka and a genuine big mountain environment, Treble Cone Ski Area is a desirable location for commercial shoots and film making. All commercial shoots require approval from both Treble Cone Ski Area and the landowner, the Department of Conservation. Location fees apply.
