  2. Perisher Blue

    Perisher Valley, Smiggin Holes, Mt Blue Cow and Guthega make up the massive resort of Perisher Blue. The terrain is roughly 22% beginners, 60% intermediate and 18% advanced with most of the action in Perisher Valley. Guthega (1640m) and Mt Blue Cow (1640m) are mainly day resorts so they're smaller and less crowded. From Guthega, cross-country skiers head to the Main Range or Rolling Ground.

  3. Thredbo

    At 1370m, Thredbo has the longest runs and some of the best skiing to be had in this big ol' sunburnt country. The village itself is eye-candy compared with other Australian ski villages, with blue, green and grey tones ensuring chalets and lodges blend with the surrounding snow gums and alpine flora.

  4. Yarrangobilly Caves

    Perhaps the most underrated in Australia, the Yarrangobilly Caves were formed in a belt of limestone around 440 million years ago. There's also a thermal pool, which retains a constant 27°C - if it's snowing, even better. There's a NPWS visitors centre but not much in the way of food or petrol so come prepared.
