Driving to the Snowy Mountains

If you’re driving from Sydney we suggest leaving between five and six hours to get here. If you’re coming from Melbourne it’s usually around a six hour drive. 

If you’re driving to Perisher from Jindabyne it’s an easy half hour drive in good weather; keep in mind that you're legally required to carry properly fitting chains in any vehicle other than 4WD's within the National Park. 

The National Park entry fee is $29 per day for each vehicle.

Plan ahead and bypass the NPWS vehicle entry station this winter. Buy your NPWS Annual All Parks Pass online at nswparkspass.info before you come skiing and snowboarding. The new digital passes are valid instantly from purchase (excluding discounted and concession annual passes).

From 20 April 2021 the NPWS vehicle entry stations will only sell day and multiday entry passes. For further information about purchasing annual passes visit nswparkspass.info, or call the National Parks Contact Centre on 1300 072 757 for assistance.

There are a few things you need to be aware of when driving in the Snowy Mountains. Kangaroos and other wildlife are frequently seen, which is an amazing sight to see, but you don’t want to hit anything. 

Here’s some quick Subaru tips for driving in the snow:

  • Use your fog lights
  • Don’t tailgate - keep a good distance between the car in front incase you need to stop suddenly
  • Brake gently
  • Don’t use hot water to remove any ice on your windscreen – either scrape it away or use the demister.

Transport While You're Here

Skitube - Alpine Railway

Perisher's Skitube is a Swiss designed rack-rail train that takes passengers from Bullocks Flat Terminal on the Alpine Way through a tunnel in the Ramshead Range to the Perisher Resort. The first stop is the underground station at Perisher Valley and then continues on to Blue Cow through another tunnel through the Perisher Range. 

When you arrive at Bullocks Flat Terminal, you'll find free day and overnight parking and because it is located below the snow fall levels, you generally won't require chains. You also don't need to purchase the National Parks entry fee. 

Since the start of operations in 1987, Skitube has carried over four million passengers to Perisher in comfort and safety. To this day, the Skitube is the most efficient and practical way to help guests experience the very best of Perisher while also taking in some beautiful sights along the way.
