Do you need to carry snow chains if you have a 4wd when going to Cardrona? |
Travel Info Hello all, When I went to Ruapehu a few years ago, if you had a 4wd you didn't need snow chains, if you didn't you had to hire them for your 2wd car. Do you know if this applies to Cardrona? I've heard a rumour that if they require them of you, you need to use them irrespective of whether your car is a 4wd or not. Travel Tips I skiied Cardrona last year and didn't see any 4WD's with chains yet we had them on everyday so I am guessing not. Others I cant speak fro cardrona, but a two wheel rear wheel drive with chains will go as far as a four wheel drive with out. The management of the access road is up to the individual ski field , and a four wheel drive with chains on the front wheels will go through even harder conditions. If you have chains , then carry them, but normally the road will not be open if a 4wd with out chains cant get up no, you dont but if you have them, take them with you just in case.... |
