how to get to PERISHER in ski season
Stay On-Snow in Perisher
Part of the fun of staying on-snow is getting here! Most guests park at the Bullocks Flat Skitube Terminal and take the Skitube up to Perisher Valley (see details below).
Please Note
Our lodge is located high up in the Snowy Mountains, and access during ski season is a little more involved than just driving straight to us. Due to snow coverage and road closures, please note the following:
- There is NO driving access to our lodge for dropping off luggage*
- Overnight parking is NOT permitted in the Perisher Valley car park or at our lodge during ski season*
- Your FREE overnight parking is available at Bullocks Flat Skitube Terminal, located outside of Kosciuszko National Park (see details below)
- Alternative options to reach us during ski season include private transfer or public bus (see details below)
*Parking options may become available in early or late ski season, depending on NPWS opening the roads. If this occurs, we will notify you of additional options a few days prior to your stay.
Arrival Oversnow Transfer
Once you’ve arrived in Perisher Valley (by Skitube, bus, or private car), you’ll be transported to our lodge in an oversnow vehicle—a specially designed vehicle built for our unique snowy alpine environment. To board your oversnow transfer, simply head to the 4Site desk inside the Perisher Skitube Terminal (upstairs, next to the baggage lift). Please note that oversnow transfers cannot be booked in advance.
How to Get to Valhalla Perisher By Car In Ski Season
Free Overnight Parking
Free overnight parking for our guests is available at the Bullocks Flat Skitube Terminal. From there, it’s about a 10-minute Skitube ride to Perisher Valley. Be sure to pre-purchase your Skitube ticket online and select the "overnight return pass." Tickets are date-based, not time-based, and you cannot pre-book a specific tube departure time. Please note that time restrictions apply for guests traveling with luggage during peak hours—check the Skitube timetable for details.
Directions to Bullocks Flat Skitube Terminal
Getting to the Skitube is easy and convenient. From Jindabyne, head out on Kosciuszko Road, take the "Thredbo" turn-off onto Alpine Way, and drive about 10 minutes. The Skitube turn-off will be on your right, just after Lake Crackenback. The terminal is located below the snowline, though snow can occasionally fall lower. Chains are rarely required to reach the terminal, but always check road/weather conditions to ensure you’re prepared for your arrival and departure.
Parking and Luggage
Once at Bullocks Flat, unload your car in the designated unloading area beside the terminal, then park in the overnight car park. Luggage trolleys are available for hire, which can be wheeled onto the Skitube. When you arrive in Perisher, your luggage can be taken up in the baggage lift located next to the 4Site desk, where you’ll board your oversnow transfer to the lodge.
Alternative Transfer Options
If you prefer not to use the Skitube, several local operators offer private 4WD shuttle services and off-mountain valley parking. You can drive to Jindabyne, leave your car, and be driven up to Perisher Valley. Here are some options:
