1 July 2022 - With four massive resort areas, there’s so much to see and do at Perisher. Make the most of your trip and get off the beaten track. Check out our five tips to start your day differently and time savers to help you hit the slopes faster.
1. Pick up your rentals, Pass and lift tickets fast
Save time and hit the slopes faster by collecting your rentals and lift pass the day before you hit the slopes at our pick up machines so you’re ready to head straight to the lifts.
Lock in your rentals from one of our stores and collect your gear the day before your booking starts. If you have a 3 or more day lift ticket and gear hire, take full advantage of the free PM access included with your lift ticket and collect your rentals from 2pm the day before your booking starts.
2. Start your day a different way
Mix things up and start your day differently! Combine fresh air and fresh tracks with a fresh state of mind and experience Perisher like you never have. Grab your gear and head straight to Blue Cow via Skitube for fresh tracks. Or begin your day in Guthega and work your way back to Mt P for a different perspective. Need to warm up your legs? Get those warmup turns done and dusted at Smiggin Holes, then head towards Mt. Perisher to test your skills.
3. Save time with Skitube
Skitube is the quickest most convenient way to travel to the slopes! From Bullocks Flat on the Alpine Way it only takes 10 minutes to travel to Perisher Valley via Skitube. Plus, you can make the most of loads of free overnight and day parking. Save on Skitube by adding access to your lift ticket here.
4. Get off the beaten track
It feels great to hit our favourite lifts, however why not get off the beaten track and experience some of Perisher’s hidden gems. Check out our local favourites below:
- Lawson T-Bar: Just next to the Leichhardt Chair, Lawson T-Bar services some of the same terrain as Leichhardt and offers some great morning runs
- International T-Bar: Eyre’s lesser-known neighbour, the International T-Bar will surprise with some great trails on Mt Perisher.
- Smiggin Holes: Full of hidden gems! Our picks? Check out Link T-Bar and Hume T-Bar for some awesome tree runs.
- Ridge Chair: A local top pick that you’ll find in Blue Cow. If you ride this one regularly, you’ll notice some familiar faces.
5. Night skiing and riding
We couldn’t leave exploring Front Valley after dark from this list! Ski and board under the bright lights of Front Valley every Tuesday and Saturday to experience riding under the stars. Plus, catch the firework show from the Village Eight Express chair for an unforgettable night.
Epic Australia Pass holders have FREE season access to night skiing and boarding, while children with a valid lift ticket for that day will have FREE access to night skiing. Adults must purchase night skiing lift access online. Find out more here.
