How to get there:
Driving is the easiest way to get to Thredbo. If you drive up there, you have to pay the National Park entry fee into Kosciuszko National Park of $29 per day for each vehicle.
All 2WD vehicles must carry snow chains in winter, between June and October long weekends.
The access road is relatively easy and not at high elevation, still, you should pay attention and drive carefully as they can be icy roads.

You can park at Friday Flat car park Thredbo’s main parking zone or designated parking areas along the Friday Drive.

Thredbo runs a free shuttle bus to take you around the village.

Toboggan & snow play:
There are no toboggan & snow play areas at Thredbo. If you want, you can try the Dead Horse Gap Track about 2km away from Thredbo. We have a separate video about Dead Horse Gap, check it out if you’re interested. Alternatively, you can go to Perisher Valley which has a dedicated toboggan and snow play area.

Ski
Thredbo is home to the country’s longest runs, almost double the amount of vertical than any other resort, and Australia’s only alpine Gondola.
Skiing here includes some steeper fall line long groomers ideal for strong intermediates, some proper black runs, and overall it has more diversity of terrain and is more picturesque.

Friday Flat is a dedicated beginner area, with a gentle slope for learners to progress with confidence. Once you’ve mastered those turns, ride Merritts Gondola up to the Cruiser area for beginners and intermediates.

Advanced skiers and boarders can ride the Kosciuszko Express Chairlift to tackle the advanced black runs like Cannonball, Bluff, and Little Beauty and the longest run in Australia at 5.6kms, the Crackenback Supertrail. Hitch a ride on the Karels TBar to the highest lifted point in Australia. For an adrenaline hit, brave the Funnel Web, one of the toughest runs at Thredbo.
