Choose Your Snow Adventure

Perisher Snow Resort: Known as the largest ski resort in the Southern Hemisphere, Perisher Snow Resort is a winter paradise for snow lovers of all ages. With over 1,200 hectares of skiable terrain, 47 lifts, and a variety of runs catering to all skill levels, Perisher is the ultimate destination for a school group looking to dive into winter sports. Spend your days skiing or snowboarding, and in the evenings, unwind with your group in cozy mountain accommodations.

Thredbo Resort: If your group is seeking a blend of adrenaline-pumping action and charming village vibes, Thredbo Resort is the place to be. Renowned for its long, groomed trails, Thredbo offers everything from beginner slopes to advanced runs. When your students aren’t on the slopes, they can explore the European-style village, complete with shops, restaurants, and entertainment. Thredbo is the perfect choice for a few days of immersive winter fun.

Selwyn Snow Resort: For a more intimate snow experience, Selwyn Snow Resort offers a family-friendly atmosphere and a range of activities tailored to younger students or beginners. The resort's gentle slopes and well-maintained facilities make it an excellent choice for those who are new to snow sports. Your group can enjoy skiing, snowboarding, or even a relaxed day of snow play, all within the beautiful surroundings of the Snowy Mountains.


Snow Play in Canberra

Corin Forest: If a full day on the slopes sounds like too much for your group, why not explore a local gem? Corin Forest in Canberra offers the perfect introduction to snow play. Just a short drive from the city, Corin Forest is ideal for younger students or those who want a taste of the snow without committing to a full resort experience. Here, students can try tobogganing, snowman building, and even take their first ski lessons in a friendly and supportive environment. It’s a great way to enjoy the magic of winter without the pressure of an entire day on the slopes.
