The Après Scene
Our Take
Wanaka Ski Region has modest après-ski. A few bars and restaurants, but this isn't a party resort. Good for families or those who prefer early nights. Prices are reasonable.
Money-Saving Tips
- Drink at village bars rather than on-mountain - typically 20-30% cheaper
- Buy beer from supermarkets for accommodation pre-drinks
- Avoid table service at busy après spots - bar prices are lower
- Happy hour deals often run 4-6pm in village bars
