Skiing & Snowboarding | Winter

If you are looking for skiing in Australia on a snowy slope then you have come to the right place as Thredbo has terrain to suit everyone.

Whether you are a beginner learning on the gentle slope of Friday Flat, stepping it up a gear at the Cruiser intermediate area or having a crack at some of the most advanced terrain in the country, Thredbo has trails for all standards.

• Beginners
  Friday Flat has been specially designed with beginner skiers and boarders in mind. The slope is a gentle 12 degrees; the experts say this is the ideal pitch for learning to turn. Getting to the top of the slope is a breeze with easy to use Snow Runners (like a baggage carousel but you stand on these ones) and the Easy Does It Chairlift. To pick up your confidence Thredbo offers a first timer lift and lesson package, and because you’ll be taking on more of the mountain in no time, first timers to Thredbo are offered an all mountain lift pass.

• Intermediates
  Intermediates love skiing in Australia with Thredbo. The long, wide, tree-lined trails are ideal for practising those turns and the super quick quad chairlifts make sure you get more runs in a day. Thredbo’s intermediate haven is the Cruiser area. These trails are dedicated to riders who only want to cruise, so there are no speed demons here! You will have a blast on runs like Walkabout, Playground and Ballroom. The great news is these trails are all fully covered by snowmaking. When you’re ready to step it up a level, the long and varied terrain on the Supertrail and High Noon are sure to provide plenty of thrills with up to 5.9km of trails to conquer.

• All Mountain Riders
  For mountain riders who want it all, Thredbo has the longest and most vertical terrain in the country, with natural hits, wind lips and powder bowls to satisfy even the most advanced riders. Thredbo’s off-piste areas are up there with the best in the southern hemisphere. Whether you are taking on the rollers and kickers off Karels, pumping the boards in the powder off The Bluff or laying them over on the early corduroy of the Supertrail, you’ll have a blast in Thredbo.
