Thredbo Ski Resort is renowned for a vibrant village atmosphere and its world famous night-life and apre ski facilities. The NSW Snowfields are easy to get to. Besides driving yourself or coach transfers, there are also direct flights from Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane to Canberra. From Canberra, you can either hire a car or catch a coach transfer to the snow. Find out more below.
Snow Chains: Thredbo Resort lies within the beautiful Kosciuszko National Park. It's compulsory for all vehicles (except AWD or 4WD) to carry snow/tyre chains when entering the Kosciuszko National Park during snow season. If you're driving an AWD or 4WD, it's still recommended you carry a set particularly if you're not used to driving on alpine roads in the snow season. They're not expensive to hire and it pays to be extra prepared. Chains can not be hired in Thredbo, and you may need them to depart the resort when the roads are icy or covered in snow. Conditions in the mountains can be unpredictable and change quickly. Don't get caught without them as fines apply.
Chains can be hired at most service stations and ski/snowboard hire outlets in Cooma and Jindabyne.
Getting around the resort: Thredbo provides a free shuttle bus which travels continually around the resort during winter. The shuttle service normally operates daily from 7.30am to 5.30pm. Additionally, a bus operates around the entire village after hours between 5.30 to 9.00pm on Sunday through to Thursday evenings and until 2am on Friday night and midnight on Saturday.
Kosciuszko National Park entry: You will be required to pay an entry fee for the National Park which is $29 per vehicle per day during winter. Alternatively you can purchase an annual or two year National Parks pass. All passes can be purchased from Jindabyne in the Snowy Region Visitors Centre or at the National Parks gates as you pass through. Annual or two year passes are also available for purchase online National Parks passes and fees.
Parking: There is plenty of FREE parking available in the Friday Flat car park.
The Snoexpress coach service provides fast and affordable coach & bus transfers from Canberra to the NSW ski fields including Thredbo, Perisher and the Jindabyne gateway. The service runs all the way up to the Thredbo Information Centre and Friday Flat opposite the River Inn.
The Snoexpress service runs on Sundays and Fridays throughout the season.
