Snowboarding and Skiing in the Snowy Mountains
It doesn’t matter if you’re a beginner hitting the ski slopes for the first time, or an experienced skier searching for some fantastic trails, the Snowy Mountains has just the skiing experience you’re searching for. If you’re into snowboarding, then you won’t miss out either. To get the most out of your adventure in the Snowy Mountains we have some great tips for you and your family:
- If you haven’t tried skiing or snowboarding before, then invest a little money in a lesson with one of the Snowy Mountain professional instructors. They will be able to help ensure that your first snow experiences are good ones and get your holiday off to the right start.
- Don’t try to ski all day long when you first start off. You’ll end up tired and run down, and it will make skiing the next day that much harder. Instead, pace it out and spread it out across your entire stay.
Mountain Biking in the Snowy Mountains
If there isn’t any snow, then don’t panic! There are still some cool physical activities to get the blood pumping. The Snowy Mountains is home to some amazingly scenic mountain biking tracks and trails. There are different level trails, so don’t worry if you’re not an expert. For pro riders, there is the Cannonball Downhill trail, and for beginners, the valley trails such as the Thredbo Valley track and Pipeline trail. Don’t worry if you don’t have your own bike either; there are plenty of places to hire the equipment you’ll need.
Horse Riding in the Snowy Mountains
If you haven’t been horse riding, then where better than one of the most scenic mountain areas in all of Australia? There is just something historic, adventurous and romantic about experiencing the Snowy Mountains from the saddle of a horse. The famous Australian “Man from Snowy River” could be reenacted, riding across Australia’s scenic and historical high country. Don’t worry about experience either as tour operators have small 1-2-hour trips, pony rides for children, and day and overnight trips for adults. Fresh air, beautiful scenery, and guided tours overflowing with history and local knowledge from experienced guides. It doesn’t get much better than that!
The Snowy Mountains are packed full of exciting activities for children, adults, families, couples, and groups of friends. Bobsledding, caves, Mt Kosciuszko, Lake Jindabyne, and the Wild Brumby Distillery just to name a few.
