What's the best way to get to perisher from the station hotel that won't drain my wallet? Alternatively, anybody staying around Jindabyne and heading to perisher between 12-17 July that can accommodate 3 uni guys with them?
http://www.perisher.com.au/the-station/accommodation/faq.html • Is there a shuttle bus to the Skitube or Perisher? Snowlink provides a shuttle bus service to Perisher and also to the Skitube. This service departs from The Station at 7.45am daily. Contact Reception for more details.
Would I include the national park fee if I booked it to the skitube? And could a trouble you guys to help me find transport from Sydney to Jindabyne
So you are asking for some kind person to give you a lift in their already stacked car for nix .....or are you happy to pay for petrol and costs to enter the park ????? Otherwise get the bus it is relatively cheap. It leaves from Central Station in Sydney.
Why not just stay on the snow at one of the lodges. Greyhound Coaches run daily from Sydney to Thredbo and back. Just hop off at Bullocks Flat, the bus arrives there about 2:15PM. You can be doing turns by 3:30 and the day before your lift pass is effective you get free use of all lifts after 2PM. Simple At least that's how it was last season, don't know about this time around. And by the way your Skitube ticket also covers the national park fees.
I may be able to give you guys a lift in to Perisher occasionally - no promises though, but it may reduce costs if I can help you out on some of the days. Potentially living in Jindy or the Station but I won't find out until Monday. Shoot me a message if you're in need and we'll see how it goes! I'd just ask to cover some fuel costs. Once again, not set in stone or anything as I may be living on mountain but it's a maybe, and I'm cool to lend a hand!
This PB dumps their casual hours staff in a sheep paddock 60kms from the workplace and the poor buggers spend the winter begging for lifts on facebook.
