Visitor Reviews of Thredbo


Dougie Siu from AUSTRALIA writes:

Thredbo is a place of dreams if you haven't got much of an imagination. There are good snow days, and bad snow days. Average snow days seem to be the trend recently since 2004. I have had great Thredbo days and bruising "I can't turn" ice days.
I have boarded loyally at Thredbo for 6 years now, reasons mainly in this order:
- Thredbo Card discount benefit ($12 off through being a Toyota Summit Club Member),
- less chance of requiring vehicle snowchains,
- close to Sydney (5 hours close)
- better terrain
- and shorter lift lines.
I've skiied in NZ, Canada and Japan. All great places to stay and ski. Japan being my pick so far because of the endless powder and people. Comparing these world class resorts to Thredbo is like comparing a playground to a stadium. Snow is always best experienced when there is of course enough snow. Some need more than others, and we unfortunately don't get much in Australia compared to the rest of the snow world.

I love Thredbo for its good and hate it for it's bad...So, don't expect much from Thredbo and complain when there hasn't been any snow falls. You don't go to the beach on a rainy day, and expect it to be good swimming weather. Check your forecasts and plan carefully your expensive Aussie snow days to get the most out of Thredbo !!!
