Excitement is building for Thredbo’s 2023 snow season, with the resort celebrating a massive first snowfall this weekend. The mountain was covered in a blanket of white from top to bottom on Sunday morning, with snow continuing to fall all the way down to the village throughout Monday.
Voted Australia’s Best Ski Resort for the sixth year in a row at the 2022 World Ski Awards, Thredbo is gearing up for another huge snow season in 2023. Beginning on 10 June and running through to 2 October 2023, Thredbo looks forward to welcoming guests back to enjoy Australia’s Best Skiing and Snowboarding.
Thredbo General Manager, Stuart Diver said he is confident that the recently redesigned business model will ensure that Thredbo continues to deliver this “premium snow experience”.
“Every year, we’re improving Thredbo’s offering. This winter, we’ll continue to prioritise capacity utilisation on the mountain. We’ll provide guests with even more added value through our biggest-ever winter calendar of events and experiences. We’re continuing to roll out developments across our lifts, snowmaking system and more. We know that the upgrades we make each year are building upon each other to create an unrivalled winter experience in Australia,” said Mr Diver.
