Knoll Ridge Chalet sits at 2,020 metres on the upper slopes of Whakapapa on Mt Ruapehu, right in the heart of Tongariro National Park. Reached only by the Sky Waka gondola, the Chalet feels like a hidden alpine retreat perched high above the Central Plateau. Its striking architecture echoes the volcanic landscape and floor to ceiling windows frame sweeping views of the maunga, the Pinnacles and the rugged terrain below.<br/><br/>Step onto the outdoor deck for an even wider panorama and a front row seat to the mountain’s shifting light and weather. Inside, the chalet offers a warm, spacious setting to pause after your gondola ride and take in the scale of New Zealand’s only UNESCO Dual World Heritage site. Whether you’re here for high tea or simply soaking up the outlook, Knoll Ridge Chalet makes every moment feel elevated.
