Alpine area: Snow Gums Boardwalk

Trasa začína na vyhlídce Charlotte's Pass. Během procházky uvidíte vrcholky australských nejvyšších hor a můžete se kochat krásnými výhledy a alpinskou flórou Guthrie Range.

Kiandra was the scene of one of the shortest gold rushes in Australian history - from November 1859 to March 1861. It has been claimed that by March 1860 there were up to 10,000 people on the diggings. Within a few years the population had stabilised at about 300. This self-guiding track begins at the RTA depot (former courthouse) and a number of signs along the way provide information about many of the major buildings and life in historic Kiandra.

The track begins at a gate on the left side of the road towards Perisher from Sawpit Creek, 1.7 kilometres past Sponar's Chalet. The track winds through snowgrass and snow gums to Rainbow Lake. The lake is a dam which was built to supply water to the Hotel Kosciusko. Sponar's Chalet had been the staff quarters for the hotel which burnt down in 1951. The old fences near a large boulder just before you descend to the lake are a legacy of the period when this area was leased for grazing.

You can start this walk from the southern end of the Kosciuszko Education Centre or from the northern end of the Sawpit Creek picnic area. The track follows Sawpit Creek downstream through woodland (candlebark, white sallee, manna gum and mountain gum). The thick shrub growing beside the creek is predominantly woolly tea tree. After about one kilometre, a track junction is reached. The Sawpit Track takes a sharp turn to the right while the Pallaibo Track continues following the creek. The Sawpit Track climbs back up to the Kosciuszko Mountain Retreat (cabins/camping area). Walk through this complex to return to the picnic area.

This walk starts at the Jounama Creek camping area, 500 metres off the Snowy Mountains Highway, three kilometres from Talbingo. It runs parallel to Jounama Creek. From the camping area walk to the end of the gravel road where the walk begins. It runs parallel to Jounama Creek and ends at a large pool. Return the same way.

The walk begins at the top of the chairlift at Thredbo. It runs beside the rocky outcrops of Rams Head Range and passes through herbfields and heath to Kosciuszko lookout. Always take a wide-brimmed hat, sunscreen, insect repellent and water and be prepared for all weather conditions in the alpine area.

The walk begins at the top of the chairlift at Thredbo. It runs beside the rocky outcrops of Rams Head Range and passes through herbfields and heath to Kosciuszko lookout. It then crosses the headwaters of the Snowy River, climbs to a saddle above Lake Cootapatamba and continues past Etheridge Range to Rawson's Pass. From here it is a gradual climb up the old road to Mount Kosciuszko's summit. Return to Thredbo along the same route. Always take a wide-brimmed hat, sunscreen, insect repellent and water and be prepared for all weather conditions in the alpine area.

This track starts at the Perisher Valley reservoir. To reach the start of the track, turn left beside the Man from Snowy River Hotel, take the first turn right and follow the road until you reach the reservoir. The track wanders through snow grass, snow gums and small shrubs until a large group of granite boulders is reached. These boulders provide an extensive view of the Main Range and Thredbo Valley.

This walk follows the old road to Mount Kosciuszko. The walk passes through snow gums, heath and herbfields and provides extensive views of the Main Range and Snowy River. Always take a wide-brimmed hat, sunscreen, insect repellent and water and be prepared for all weather conditions in the alpine area.

From the Alpine Way the Cascade Trail follows the Thredbo River upstream for about 2km before crossing it and climbing to the top of Bob's Ridge from where there are views over the Murray River into Victoria. Return the same way.

This track begins from either the Thredbo Diggings camping area or from the western side of the Bullock's Flat car park opposite the Skitube terminal. Both routes are signposted.

The track goes to Bullock's Hut, which was built in 1934 as a holiday cottage for Dr H. Bullock.

This track begins from either the Thredbo Diggings camping area or from the western side of the Bullock's Flat car park opposite the Skitube terminal. Both routes are signposted.

This track begins opposite the Cascade Trailhead. It crosses the Thredbo River several times as it follows the river downstream to the Thredbo golf course. Along the way it passes cascades and still pools which provide habitat for both introduced trout and native platypus.

The track begins opposite the southern entrance to Three Mile Dam. Among its features are snowgrass flats, snow gum woodland and an abandoned ore-crushing battery.

This track starts at the Sawpit Creek picnic area and finishes at Thredbo River picnic area near the Kosciuszko Road entrance station. Most visitors arrange to be picked up from the Thredbo River picnic area. The first part of the walk follows the Sawpit Track. When the Sawpit Track branches off to the right, continue along the creek down past Sawpit Falls and Charlie's Cascades. As the track drops down towards Thredbo River (steep in sections) it crosses former grazing land. After crossing Sawpit Creek the track follows the river downstream to the picnic area.

This relatively flat walk through sub-alpine woodland provides views over the Snowy River to the west and Lake Jindabyne to the east. Turn back at SnowyHydro's adio repeater tower and return the way you have come.

This track starts at the Sawpit Creek picnic area and passes under the road. It runs roughly parallel to Sawpit Creek until it crosses the creek at a cascade or small 'waterfall'. The tall trees with fibrous bark growing near the falls are alpine ash. Alpine ash was logged in this area late last century. On the return, the track passes between huge granite boulders before returning to the picnic area.

The track starts from the parking area at the bridge over the Snowy Mountains Highway at the Log Bridge Creek picnic area. The track, which goes to Blowering Falls, is quite steep in sections and passes through dense vegetation which grows on the damp, sheltered hillsides. The last section of the walk involves negotiating rock slabs which have fallen from the cliff above.

This walk follows the first road up Talbingo Mountain, built in 1860 during the Kiandra gold rush. It starts at the RTA stockpile, which, if you were travelling toward Cooma, is 5.5 km past the Talbingo turn-off on the left side of the highway. It involves a steep descent, so organise a car shuttle at the bottom. The first part of the walk provides excellent views of the Bogong Peaks and Jounama Creek valley. After two kilometres the track turns sharp right and descends 350 metres in altitude to Jounama Creek. Turn left at the creek to reach the picnic area.

The Jennings walks commemorate the work of Dr Joseph Jennings who carried out research in this limestone karst area for 30 years. An information display at Blue Waterholes camping ground provides a map of both walks and information signs have been installed along the way.

From the top of the Crackenback chairlift the track passes through alpine herbfields and heath below the craggy peaks of the Rams Head Range. It then winds down a ridge through snow gums until the Thredbo River is reached near Dead Horse Gap on the Alpine Way. Always take a wide-brimmed hat, sunscreen, insect repellent and water and be prepared for all weather conditions in the alpine area.

After crossing the Snowy River below Charlotte's Pass, the track climbs through alpine herbfields past Hedley Tarn Lookout to Blue Lake Lookout. It then climbs Carruther's Peak which provides spectacular views to the west. It continues along the exposed ridge of the Main Range above Club Lake and Lake Albina until it meets the Summit Walk between Rawson's Pass and Mount Kosciuszko. Turn right to climb Kosciuszko before returning via the old road to Charlotte's Pass. Always take a wide-brimmed hat, sunscreen, insect repellent and water and be prepared for all weather conditions in the alpine area.

This walk follows the old road to Mount Kosciuszko. In 1976 the NPWS closed the road to public vehicles at Charlotte's Pass because of safety concerns, environmental problems and lack of parking. The walk passes through snow gums, heath and herbfields and provides extensive views of the Main Range and Snowy River. After crossing the Snowy River the track climbs gradually to Seaman's Hut, Rawson's Pass and Mount Kosciuszko's summit. Always take a wide-brimmed hat, sunscreen, insect repellent and water and be prepared for all weather conditions in the alpine area.
