Club Info

Alpine Sports Club has been getting New Zealanders into the outdoors for nearly a century. What started as a small group of Auckland adventurers has grown into a thriving community of families, trampers, skiers, mountaineers and bushcraft enthusiasts — with members across New Zealand, from Auckland to the Waikato and beyond.

We're not an elite club. We're a welcoming community where beginners learn alongside experienced mountaineers, and where kids grow up with a love of the outdoors.

What Makes Us Different

We own our own huts

Three member-owned huts give you a private base in the hills — two lodges right on the Whakapapa ski field, and a bush retreat in the Waitākere Ranges. These aren't DOC huts — they're yours as a member.

We welcome all ages and experience levels

From toddlers at family camp to seasoned alpinists tackling the South Island — and everything in between. If you love the outdoors, or want to, you belong here.

We've been doing this since 1929

Nearly 100 years of trips, camps, courses and friendships. We know how to run a club, and we know how to have a good time outdoors.
