Hi, Just doing some planning for the June school holiday period (29th June to 3rd July), this will be our second time to Perisher, first during peak period. Can someone advise how much roughly was the ticket price for a 3 day and a 4 day lift pass for adult and student? And how chaotic the parking would be up at Smiggins and Perisher? Thanks
The following website has last year’s pricing in pdf to give you a guide, this years pricing not up on their official website yet. https://onsnow.com.au/wp-content/up...p-2019-Lift-Passes-Lessons-Hire-Pricelist.pdf At Perisher at a similar time last year though parked at Bullocks Flat, so no idea how chaotic parking was. The following week I would imagine would be a zoo when pretty much all states are on School Holidays.
Parking is tricky much of the season now, but I can't recall it being any worse on School holidays if you get there early. getting kids out of bed in the dark and into the car is a disipline, but if you are early enough you can enjoy brekky in the carpark or at the terminal, get a good car park so the kids don;t have to walk so far (important later in the day) and you don't get quite so many idiots on the road. Vail Resort are pricing tickets to get you to trade-up from 3/4 days to a season pass, so have a look at prices, consider an extra day or two and you might be better off with the season passes. Either way, it's not cheap, nor is accommodation (generally) but given the fun you will have, it's all worth it. Let's hope there's plenty of snow!!!!
Feel from memory, they do give you discounts for booking ahead, but pricing structure is very much geared towards driving season pass sales.
Any recommendations of accommodation for a group of 3 families (6 A 5Kids)? Around Jindabyne around, trying to keep cost down. Thanks
For groups, low cost in or near Jindy, The Station is going to be a pretty good option. Otherwise there are a few good self contained options for a group of 11 in Jindy here: https://www.jindabyneaccommodationcentre.com.au/holiday/Availability e.g. https://www.jindabyneaccommodationcentre.com.au/accommodation/29-06-2020/03-07-2020/181 https://www.jindabyneaccommodationcentre.com.au/accommodation/29-06-2020/03-07-2020/77
