Stay Close to the Action
The Station in Jindabyne is offering a Pay 4, Stay 5 deal thatโs perfect for PEAK Festival-goers who want a little extra time in the mountains, whether to squeeze in more music, more snow, or simply enjoy a slower start to the morning. Set just a short drive from the slopes, The Station is a festival favourite for good reason. With spacious rooms, casual on-site dining, a friendly pub, and easy access to the Skitube at Bullocks Flat, itโs a great base to kick back after a full day of festival fun.
Getting Here and Getting Around
Driving and Parking
If youโre planning to drive, youโll find day parking at Perisher Valley, with additional parking available at Smiggins Holes. Keep in mind that this is a busy weekend, so it pays to arrive early for the best spots. Important note: All 2WD vehicles must carry snow chains when entering Kosciuszko National Park during winter. Even if itโs not snowing, conditions can change quickly, and it’s always better to be prepared.ย If youโre staying in Jindabyne or down the mountain, we recommend parking at Bullocks Flat Skitube Terminalโwhich brings us to the easiest travel option of all…
Take the Skitube!
The Skitube is hands-down the simplest and most scenic way to get to Perisher during the festival. Departing from Bullocks Flat (just 20 minutes from Jindabyne), it avoids the need to drive up the mountain altogether. No snow chains, no narrow alpine roadsโjust a smooth ride straight into the heart of the action. Bonus: Parking at Bullocks Flat is free, and you wonโt need a National Park entry pass if you’re using the Skitube.
