Event description
Summertime in The Snowies
Saturday 22nd Saturday 29th January 2022
The Snowy Mountains, known informally as "The Snowies", is an IBRA subregion and the highest mountain range on the continent of mainland Australia. It contains the Australian mainland's highest mountain, Mount Kosciuszko, which reaches a height of 2,228 m above sea level. ‘Wikipedia’
Nestled between the lake and mountains, Jindabyne is the perfect base for Snowy Mountain Adventure. Rolling mountains of green are laced with streams and rivers filled to the brim after the melt.
