Description

Nestled in the scenic Kosciuszko National Park, the Thredbo River Picnic Area offers picturesque vistas of the river bank and forest surroundings.

It is a well-maintained picnic area with picnic tables and free barbecue facilities, making it an ideal pit-stop during your Snowy Mountains adventure.

Pay close attention during your visit, as platypuses can often be spotted in the nearby river, especially at dusk. Blooming gum trees and golden clustered everlasting wildflowers are abundant in spring.

For adventure seekers, fishing for trout in the Thredbo River is a fun-filled activity. The surrounding national park is also great for bushwalking, with the nearby Pallaibo walking track providing leisurely strolls and stunning views.

The Thredbo River Picnic Area is accessible year-round, offering unique experiences in all seasons. Summer is great for family picnics, autumn showcases the colors of deciduous trees, winter transforms the Snowy Mountains into a winter wonderland ideal for skiing, and spring offers perfect weather for outdoor activities.

To get to the Thredbo River Picnic Area, it is a 25-minute drive from Jindabyne or a 2.5-hour drive from Canberra. Access is available via Thredbo Valley, either through the Alpine Way Road from Jindabyne or via Khancoban on the Murray Valley Highway in Victoria.
