Autumn Adventures & Alpine Escapes
Easter is one of the most magical times to visit the Snowy Mountains. As the alpine landscape shifts into crisp autumn colours, the region offers the perfect balance of outdoor adventure, family-friendly events and relaxed mountain dining.
With Easter falling across a long weekend and the additional public holiday after Anzac Day in late April, it creates the perfect opportunity for a longer alpine escape. Whether you are visiting for a short getaway or extending your stay across the school holidays, the Snowy Mountains come alive with activities across Jindabyne, Thredbo and the surrounding national parks.
Easter Events & Family Fun
Easter in the Snowy Mountains offers something for visitors of all ages. The region hosts a variety of seasonal events that combine outdoor adventure with family-friendly entertainment.
One of the highlights during the Easter school holidays is the Kids Easter Adventure Festival in Thredbo, featuring treasure hunts, arts and crafts, mountain activities and family entertainment. The Lake Light Sculpture exhibition at the Lake Jindabyne foreshore is another popular attraction, transforming the lakeside into an outdoor gallery of illuminated sculptures.
Beyond organised events, Easter is also the perfect time to enjoy the natural beauty of the region.
Popular activities include:
• Scenic hikes through Kosciuszko National Park
• Mountain biking along the famous Thredbo Valley Track
• Fishing for trout in alpine rivers and Lake Jindabyne
• Picnics and lakeside walks around Lake Jindabyne
The combination of crisp mountain air, vibrant landscapes and lively village atmosphere makes Easter one of the most enjoyable times to explore the Snowies.
