Thredbo Alpine Resort

Thredbo Ski Resort - The Snowy Mountains Year-Round Destination!

Thredbo AccommodationMore than just a winter playground, Thredbo is a resort for all seasons.  Set within the unspoiled Kosciuszko National Park in South East NSW, Thredbo offers year round activities to keep everyone enthralled.

In summer, Thredbo blends a unique mountain environment with cultural events and activites.  You can take a walk by the Thredbo River and discover the fascinating wildlife, or wet a line and test your skill at fly fishing.  For a bit of an adventure catch the chairlift that operates all year round then stroll to the top of Australia and if you’re after some heart racing action, jump on a mountain bike and take a thrilling 6.2km blast down the infamous Cannonball Run.

The Village has a cosmopolitan feel and is dotted with wonderful art works and architecture.  You can relax in one of the many cafes and bars and listen to vibrant live music as it fills the alpine air.

Thredbo has various accommodation options from lodges for the budget conscious traveller including Alpenhorn Lodge, apartments sleeping from 2 to 10 people, or luxury hotel accommodation such as Thredbo's The Denman Hotel. There really is a property to suit all ages, tastes and budgets in Thredbo!
