My Mt Kosciuszko summit walk began down in the Thredbo village.
From ground central, I hopped on the chair lift to take me up to the highest access point to begin the Mt Kosciuszko summit walk.
Once you get off the chair lift, the walk begins along a well constructed steel mesh walking track at around 1500 meters above sea level. The Mt Kosciuszko summit is at 2228 meters above sea level, and is the highest peak on main land Australia.
From the top of the chair lift to the very summit of Mt Kosciuszko, is about 6 ks each way.
The walking track isn't overly steep, but it is a very constant gradient all the way to the summit, and it does require a fair amount of fitness if you are planning to take the walk up.
Once you reach the Mt Kosciuszko summit, the 360 degree views are totally breath taking.
I highly recommend taking some food and drinks in a back pack for your walk and having lunch at the summit while enjoying those amazing views.
Once you have spent enough time on top of Australia, you make you way back down the Mt Kosciuszko summit walk to the chair lift and enjoy the ride back down and give the feet a rest. Lol
