Snow-shoeing
Come explore the hidden and secret places of Australia's largest Alpine National Park, Kosciuszko. Snow-shoeing is a perfect way to discover Australia's unique wilderness and wildlife, at your own pace, for as short or as long as you like.
Experience a landscape very different to Europe and North America, a place with no pine trees, only the gnarled twisted limbs and mottled orange and green trunks of the unique snow gums.
Snow-shoeing is as simple as one foot in front of the next and fitness is not an issue. Check out the Snowshoe Trail Map or contact;
- Snowy Mountains Backcountry or
- Wilderness Sports for more details.
Telemark Skiing
Anyone can simply master the technique of ‘freeheel' skiing. This is where skiing all started in the early days and is still the most dynamic and exciting way to ski. Experienced instructors can introduce you to the joys and challenge of Freeheel skiing, with freedom to explore the vast expanse and terrain of the Perisher resort.
No matter what experience you would like to try on snow, Perisher has it all!
