Getting Here | Valhalla Perisher

Parking

Free overnight parking is at Bullocks Flat Skitube Terminal. Please note that there is no overnight parking in ski season at our lodge nor on the mountain in Perisher. National Parks enforce road closures within Perisher regardless of snow conditions, usually from June Long Weekend through to October Long Weekend. Free overnight parking for on mountain guests is available at Bullocks Flat Skitube Terminal.

If you are using a GPS enter your destination as "Bullocks Flat" on Alpine Way. Bullocks Flat is below the snow line so chains are rarely required. You cannot drive all the way to our lodge so we DO NOT recommend driving up to Perisher just to drop your bags. Please park at Bullocks Flat and take the skitube. Note that skitube is not included in your accommodation tariff and can be purchased through Perisher.

Occasionally NPWS allow limited parking at our lodge and Smiggin Holes for June and October Long Weekends only. In the event we are notified that roads are open and parking is permitted we will notify you.

Valet Parking with Perisher Transfer is available with Snowlink. Park your car at Snowlink's private, secure location and they will load you and your luggage into one of their vehicles and deliver you to Hans Oversnow in Perisher Valley for oversnow transfer up to Valhalla Lodge.

Check In From 4pm

Check in time is from 4pm. Parking is at Bullocks Flat Skitube Terminal. After taking the ski tube to Perisher, please come up to us with Hans Oversnow unless otherwise advised by our Lodge Manager. This arrival transfer with Hans Oversnow is included in your package.

Early Arrivals (before 4pm)

Guests arriving early will not be served breakfast on the day of arrival. Bags can be stored at the lodge until check in. Note: Our lodge is usually not staffed between 10am - 4pm, so PLEASE ADVISE your estimated time of arrival to ensure a staff member is on site to greet you.

As check in is from 4pm we provide an arrival transfer with luggage only on arrival day. No after ski oversnow transfer is included on arrival day. If you choose to ski on arrival day you can purchase a skier coupon from us or directly with Hans Oversnow at $7 per person. The coupon can be used between 3:30pm - 5:30pm to return with Hans Oversnow to our lodge. Alternatively it's about a 10minute uphill walk.

Please note that some luggage restrictions apply for the skitube on certain days in peak season between 8am-10.20am. Please see the skitube timetable for more information.

Late Arrivals (after 8pm)

Guests arriving on the 8pm skitube will miss our 7pm dinner service and will therefore not be served dinner. There will be no reductions or refunds of your package price for late arrivals. There may not be any dinner options open in Perisher Valley depending upon the time you arrive so it would be best to eat along the way.

Note: Hans Oversnow charges a $110 call out fee for arrivals after midnight on Saturday to Thursday nights and after 12:30am Saturday mornings (Friday night arrivals). This fee is payable directly to Hans Oversnow.
