Other resorts are bigger, others have more lifts, but none has the long runs and beautiful fall lines and consistant snow cover that nature saw fit to bestow this area of the snowy mountains. Thredbo is the benchmark which other resorts measure themselves. What makes Thredbo stand apart from all the other resorts in Australia is the vertical- no one comes close to the 672 metres of beautiful steep fall line coupled with runs up to 3.6 kilometres long.
