Summer Wrap Up

THREDBO TO MT KOSCIUSZKO

The Kosciuszko Chairlift will close from the 28th of April through to the 30th of May for scheduled maintenance; however, the Snowgums Chairlift will be active during this period to allow access for hikers wishing to do the Kosciuszko Walk, Dead Horse Gap and the Main Range. Those with keen eyes may still be able to spot a flower here and there, like the Snowy Eyebright pictured below.

Exciting news here at Thredbo with a brand new in-resort trail, the Harusch loop! Accessed via the Merritts Gondola, this trail takes you on a historical journey past the remnants of the old Harusch Lift, a rope tow that ran from 1978 right up to 1995 and the installation of the Cruiser Chairlift. This one will have to be added to the bucket list for the beginning of next summer, whilst the resort is in winter mode!
