About THREDBO

Thredbo is one of Australia's leading ski resorts. It is modelled on a European skiing town. Unlike Perisher Blue it is an actual town with lodges, shopping and nightlife. Thredbo has 12 lifts (3 hi-speed quads, 5 t-bars, 3 double chairs, 1 quad and a carpet). It has the steepest overall terrain of any ski resort in Australia and also the highest lifted point (2037m AHD). Thredbo is regarded by some as the best NSW ski resort when fully covered, but because of the low altitude (1365m) of its base, the resort does not always keep snow on the lower half as the temperatures are too high to sustain it there. Because of this Thredbo has invested in the largest snowmaking system in the Southern Hemisphere that runs mainly at night to top up the lower half of the mountain and any other high traffic areas. The system has been expanded in 2006 at a cost of $2 million and has been partially automated so that snow can be made at an instant. The automated areas at the moment include the Supertrail, Friday Flat, Walkabout at Merrits, High Noon and Sundowner. The village has free shuttle buses running to the Valley Terminal, Friday Flat and some of the ski lodges.

Thredbo has over 50 ski runs and employs a standard 3-colour grade system, with green being beginner, blue intermediate and black diamond advanced. The longest continual run is from the top of Karel's T-Bar to Friday Flat and is 5.9km long; however, this is composed of several trails. The longest single run is the Crackenback Supertrail, 3.7km long, which has been widely publicised as the longest run in Australia. The hardest run in Thredbo is said to be Funnel Web, notorious for its near-vertical middle section.
