Welcome to the Snowy Mountains
Australia's High Country


Hiker at Lake AlbinaWell known for being home to Australia's best snow sports, it is outside this peak season the mountains shake off the snow to expose their real beauty. Spectacular peaks, clear mountain streams and the clean, crisp high country air provide a brilliant backdrop for your holiday.

In the warmer months, when fields of wildflowers bloom, you can become snap-happy on horseback in the high plains or enjoy the impressive scenery on a bushwalk along the rooftop of Australia. Melting snow generates a surge for white-water rafters, trout fill the streams and the vast lakes offer great water skiing or the outlook for the perfect picnic.

The Snowies offer an abundance of natural and cultural attractions and activities. These experiences are enhanced by all the visitor services you'd expect from a quality destination including a wide range of accommodation and dining options.
