Travel & Holidays Snowy Mountains

All good mate.

 

hehe.. well we don't 'do' either, as in have any degree of proficiency. We love ice skating though and do that regularly in Sydney so hopefully we will mange to not make complete fools of ourselves on the snow.

My wife has already said every time she falls, its one Black Cross for me and when I reach 10 well.....

 

Tell her she just has to read Skater's tagline....

Just don't wear jeans on the snow - that's an instant 10 black crosses.

 

thanks mate. I think long, warm tights should do the trick!

Jeez the more we speak about it here the more excited I am getting. I relay all this great feedback to her and she is also counting down the days. We really need a break so this will be great.

 

I assume you're driving and not talking the private jet for this trip but the scenic route going down or coming back could be good if you have time. (Haven't done all of it myself) from syd going over the blue mountains and down through jenolan to goulban then back on the highway. Nice scenic drive, does add time but autumn is nice up the blue mtns . Do a Google to confirm before going

 

Well there you go they even have an Internet connection out there !
The Tablelands Way

 

Cool, it's worthwhile going on the little beginner slope to practice in the morning.
Otherwise it can be a long day.

 

@bob shovel thanks for the tip re scenic route.. I didn't even know there is one but I'll google it soon!

 

@Mick Butterfield can you suggest a good route from Sydney to Snowy mountains mate?

Cheers

 

Is this the best route you guys would go..?

 

@Leo2413 From Sydney the best route is the quickest route on the Hume then through to Cooma/Jindabyne. Anything else away from this will add considerable time without much benefit. What I would say is that if you have a couple of days extra you should go back via the Snowy Mountains Hwy through to the Sapphire Coast. I live in Bermagui which is about 2.5hrs from the snow. Shout you a coffee in the best coastal town in Australia

 

Thats the way. Stay away from the other suggested route as there are some pretty ordinary roads through there.

 

Thanks @Mick Butterfield . OK we will go that route. Would love to grab that coffee with ya.. I just suspect that we will be racing back on day 4 to Sydney... I also wish we had more time there.. it was eigher go for 4 days only during this period or postpone it for a month or two.... we decided screw it we are taking 4 days and going now!

 

Why put it off. 4 days is a good amount of time. Enjoy it @Leo2413

 

Cheers mate. Just hope there is snow!

 

Its suggesting to go through the Monaro hwy I think: I zoomed in.

 

@geoffw is that what your suggesting?

Although having said that... I was thinking to stop here along the way...which would mean I need to enter Canberra
