Day 2 - Wilsons Promontory NP to Snowy River Country
After breakfast, enjoy your journey along the scenic Barry Way as you watch the Snowy River wind below and make your way across the border into NSW. In the afternoon, let the bus do all the work as you climb high into the Australian Alps (seasonal Nov-May). Enjoy a rewarding hike along an alpine track (2 1/2 hour round-trip) absorbing stunning views of the glacial 'Blue Lake' and the peak of Mt Kosciuszko (the highest point in Australia). During winter, (Jun-Oct) you visit the ski village of Perisher/Smiggins for fun in the snow. Stay overnight at the Lake Jindabyne Hotel where you'll get to enjoy the mountain life. |
