Perisher ski field in Australia announced over the weekend that they would be opening a full week earlier than scheduled. As a result, they will be first to kick off the southern hemisphere ski season when their lifts start turning on Friday, June 4th, 2021.
Drumroll please…
We couldn’t wait to welcome you back so we decided to open early! That’s right, PERISHER IS OPEN FROM FRIDAY 4 JUNE!
We’re not saying drop everything but, drop everything! The story began a long, long time ago…okay not that long ago. But basically, our Mountain Operations team have been going back and forth in hard negotiations with the gods to organise a colder than average month of May.
Success! With cool nights set as the new normal, and another top-up on the way this week, we’re excited to kick things off with a bang on Friday 4 June.
You heard us! It’s time to get ready for some PRIMO early-season skiing and boarding.
Perisher will open Front Valley for skiing and snowboarding with the Village Eight Express turning for the first time in 2021 with a beginners carpet also open. The Mitchell T-Bar will then open the next day on Saturday, June 5.
Perisher is Australia’s most popular snow holiday destination. Located in the picturesque Kosciuszko National Park in NSW, its four resort areas make it the Southern Hemisphere’s largest alpine resort. Perisher’s varied terrain is suitable for all ages and ability levels, from first-timers right up to experts.
Perisher is immense, with 1245 hectares of terrain to explore, 47 lifts, seven mountain peaks, four resort areas, Snowsports School, retail stores, hire outlets, Skitube, and much, much more.
