Great skiing and boarding over 480 hectares of snow riding territory, with Australia’s longest runs serviced by a fast efficient lifting system and unsurpassed snowmaking facilities. The Kosciuszko Express can whisk you from bottom to top in just 7 minutes. Thredbo Village is the cosmopolitan snow capital of Australia where you can party hard from dusk til dawn, experience memorable dining in one of twenty different cafés and restaurants and enjoy great live music. On a Saturday there is an added visual spectacular with the Flare Run and fireworks display on the Crackenback Supertrail.
Getting around the village is easy with the complimentary shuttle service which operates every day. There are also 2,500 car park spaces in the village with many of the lodges offering on-site parking. The Cruiser area is dedicated to those looking for wide open tree lined trails and access to the high speed Cruiser chairlift or step it up on the Crackenback and High Noon Supertrails with up to 5.9kms of pristine corduroy to conquer. Having recently spent $8 million on the automation process of Thredbo’s snowmaking system, the resort can produce more than three times the amount of snow over pre-automated days. This winter it is anticipated the system will produce approximately 600,000 cubic metres of snow, that is equal to covering 60 average football fields with over a metre of snow.
Thredbo offers a variety of accommodation to suit all budgets ranging from lodge style to one of the biggest selection of apartments in the Australian snowfields. The Thredbo Leisure Centre has an array of equipment to satisfy any fitness freak, or you can tackle the boulder wall, shoot some hoops, play squash or indoor soccer. Or maybe you would prefer to enjoy a dip or do some laps in the heated pool which boasts 4 x 50m and 4 x 25m lanes.
In 2006 and 2008 Thredbo has won the prestigious accolade of The Best Australian Ski Resort in Luxury Travel Magazine the ‘Gold List’. Whether you come with a group of friends, on a honeymoon, or as a family, Thredbo Village gives you a memorable winter experience.
Twilight riding is up there on the “must do” list on a snow holiday. Every Thursday and Saturday evening in July and August you can keep on riding as the Easy Does It chairlift on Friday Flat remains open until 7:30pm. Even better news- it’s free from 4:30pm
to 7:30pm.
