Thredbo

Thredbo boasts the longest vertical in Australia (672m) with the longest run being 5.5km.
Of course this run winds down the mountain in broad sweeping turns however, the above average length of runs at Thredbo holds great appeal to many people with 2 express quads accessing the "super trails".

Thredbo's super trails offer the longest continuous skiing in Australia and are comparable to those on many famous foreign resorts.

Thredbo has a lot going for it when skiing is available from top to bottom. The only problem that Thredbo experiences is that its low base elevation (only 1365m) results in the lower parts of runs being slushy. To overcome the lack of natural snow below 1500m, Thredbo has invested heavily in snowmaking with 380 guns capable of covering 60 hectares almost at will. This has allowed Thredbo to run top to bottom for most of the season.

There is limited ski in ski out lodging at Thredbo but the well laid out Village ensures that you will be on the slopes with just a few minutes walk. Thredbo's nightlife is a definite draw card, offering a diverse selection of restaurants and nightspots to assist you in ruining your next days skiing. After comparing Thredbo's nightlife to other resorts, you'll agree that it is second to none.

Thredbo is located in the Kosciusko region near Perisher Blue and Charlotte Pass and is an easy 5.5 to 6 hour drive from Sydney or 7 hours from Melbourne with the majority of the drive being on Freeways.
