Forget the skis, it’s time to ride!

Thredbo, the iconic ski resort nestled within the majestic Kosciuszko National Park, is adding a thrilling new attraction to its winter repertoire – the Southern Hemisphere’s first-ever Alpine Coaster. Scheduled to open this winter, the coaster promises an exhilarating experience for visitors of all ages, adding another layer of adventure-filled fun to a Thredbo holiday.

Riders will be cruising along a scenic mountain track, with breathtaking vistas of snow-capped peaks unfurling before them. You’ll feel the crisp mountain air invigorate your senses as you zip through tunnels, navigate gentle curves, and experience the thrill of controlled descents. The Thredbo Alpine Coaster weaves a 1.5-kilometer path through the alpine environment, featuring both uphill and downhill sections, exciting tunnels, and sturdy bridges. Riders can control their speed, reaching a maximum of 40 kilometres per hour, allowing them to tailor the experience to their comfort level and their desired level of adrenaline.

Thredbo Alpine Coaster Summer

The Thredbo Alpine Coaster isn’t just a winter wonderland attraction. Designed for year-round operation, it ensures the coaster becomes a drawcard throughout the year. During the summer months, when the snow melts away and lush greenery takes over the landscape, the coaster will offer a scenic journey amidst the vibrant mountains, perfect for families and sightseers seeking a unique and enjoyable way to experience the beauty of the alpine environment.

The addition of the Alpine Coaster reflects Thredbo’s ongoing commitment to providing a well-rounded and exciting experience for its visitors. With its diverse range of activities, from skiing and snowboarding to scenic gondola rides and now the thrilling Alpine Coaster, Thredbo remains a premier destination for creating lasting memories in the heart of the Snowy Mountains.

Construction of the coaster is progressing well, with an official opening date to be announced closer to winter. Keep an eye on Thredbo’s website for further updates and information on this exciting new addition, and get ready to experience the thrill this winter!
