australia's tallest mountain?!?!? well its just a hill, but a great days walk. Ive seen kids and grandmas make the summit. its an easy climb, esspecially if you use the chairlift for 3/4 of the ascent

ice all year round

dont bother with snow boots except in the winter. its only 2228m meters high, and the decent takes 3 hours

cheating is easy...catch the chair lift to 1900m then walk for 5 hours and wholla...your on top of australia it costs... more travel advice

the map at base camp - Thredbo Village the map at base camp Off The Beaten Path (3)

its rather odd that theres a map at 1900m cause there is a metel walkway all the way to the top guiding you...and thats... more travel advice

dont run out of water,\ - Thredbo Village dont run out of water,\ Off The Beaten Path (3)

...or you'll have to eat ice. Then again, there is a pub at 1900m, and its a nice respite from the winter elements more travel advice

a beer at the backpackers - Thredbo Village jyndibines best backpackers Hotels (1)

clean cheap and central, and a 25 min drive from the kosiosko base camp (thredbo) more travel advice
