High Country Hikes – Thredbo
When most people think of the Snowy Mountains in Southern NSW their first thought is of snowy days, wild weather and the experience of sliding around in some of the countries biggest resorts during winter. However there is another side to the mountains, one where the mild summer days are full of amazing hiking, endless water-sports and even some world class mountain biking.
