 Methven is a small town in the Canterbury region of the South Island of New Zealand. It is located near the western edge of the Canterbury Plains, 35 kilometres north of Ashburton.
Nearby, Mount Hutt rises to the west of the Canterbury Plains in the South Island of New Zealand, above the braided upper reaches of the Rakaia River, and 80 kilometres west of Christchurch. Its summit is 2190 metres above sea level.
 
The mountain is home to a commercial alpine ski area with the largest ski able area in the South Island (3.65 square kilometres), and a vertical height of 683 metres.
 
It caters for a wide range of skiers, with a "magic carpet" lift for beginners, good intermediate and advanced runs, and access to large off-piste areas. The most advanced runs on the mountain are through the rock formations at the top of the field known as "The Towers", and the South Face.
 
The snow season is from June to October. Mount Hutt prides itself on and historically has been the first ski-field in the Southern Hemisphere to open at the beginning of each season. Mt Hutt's facilities include a high-speed six seater chair, a quad chair, triple chair and magic carpet.
 
Since there is no accommodation on the mountain, most visitors stay in the nearby town of Methven, a 35 minute drive to the mountain. The larger town of Ashburton is 55 minutes away. The city of Christchurch is just over an hour's drive away.
 
Christchurch is the largest city in the South Island of New Zealand, and the country's second-largest urban area. It is one third the way down the South Island's east coast, just north of Banks Peninsula.
