how to get to PERISHER
Stay On-Snow in Perisher
One of the benefits of staying with us during ski season, is our magical on snow ski out location. Our lodge is typically snowbound for the duration of the ski season. Even if there is limited or no snow coverage, roads are closed by NPWS to non-lodge vehicles between June and October Long Weekends.
Part of the fun of staying on snow is getting here. Most people park at the Bullocks Flat Skitube Terminal and come up to Perisher Valley by skitube (see below).
Once you're at Perisher Valley, you'll ride up to us in an oversnow. This is a special purpose built vehicle for our unique environment.
As roads to our lodge are closed, you cannot drive up to our lodge to drop your bags off during ski season. Please see your options below on how to get to Perisher Valley.
Arrival Oversnow Transfer
Unless otherwise advised by our Manager, once you have arrived at Perisher Valley, proceed to the 4Site desk located inside the Perisher Skitube Terminal for your transfer to Valhalla (included in your tariff). You cannot book your oversnow transfer prior to arrival.
How to Get to Perisher By Car In Ski Season
Option 1: Skitube
Free overnight parking is at Bullocks Flat Skitube Terminal. From Bullocks Flat it's about a 10minute skitube ride to Perisher Valley. Pre-purchase your ticket online. Select an overnight return pass. Tickets are date based, not time based. You cannot pre-book a tube departure time. Please note that time restrictions apply for guests traveling with luggage in peak hours, please see timetable for details.
Catching the skitube is VERY easy. Directions: Bullock Flat Skitube Terminal is about 15 minutes from Jindabyne. Heading out of Jindabyne on Kosciuszko Road, take the "Thredbo" turn off onto Alpine Way. Drive about 10minutes and the skitube turn off will be on your right, immediately after Lake Crackenback. Alpine Way is technically located below the snowline. Of course snow can fall below the snowline. Very rarely chains are required for this road so keep an eye on road/weather conditions for your arrival and departure days to be prepared.
Once you arrive at Bullocks Flat Skitube Terminal, unload your car in the designated unload area alongside the terminal and then park your car in the overnight car park. There are luggage trolleys for hire if you require that can be wheeled onto the tube. When you arrive in Perisher, your luggage can be taken up in the baggage lift which opens right next to the 4Site desk which is where you need to go next for your transfer up to our lodge. It really is very easy, no stress. Find out more about skitube.
