While many of you are enjoying warm weather, it’s winter in Australia, and Sydney doesn’t get snow. To experience it, we had to drive 6 hours.
Our adventure began with a 3-hour drive from Sydney to Canberra, where we stayed with friends. From there, it was another 3.5-hour journey to the Snowy Mountains. Along the way, we stopped in Cooma to hire car chains and toboggans.
Initially, we planned to visit Perisher Valley, but by 10 am, the car park was full, so we headed to Thredbo instead. Unfortunately, we discovered that Thredbo doesn’t allow tobogganing, which was a bit disappointing.
Despite this, we were thrilled to experience the falling snow, especially since it was my kids’ first time seeing it. We made snowmen and had a blast with snowball fights. Although the kids were a little let down by not being able to toboggan, they had a fantastic time sliding on the snow and enjoying themselves.
Around 4 pm, as the wind started to pick up and it became extremely cold, we decided to return to our accommodation. We had booked a place in Cooma for the night. Stay tuned for more details about our stay in the next post!
