Blue Cow has more challenging terrain and a huge terrain park and snowcross course.
The lift pass covers 47 lifts.
Do not expect long runs as the slopes offer a vertical of less than 430m. Perisher village is very spread out, but recent investment has resulted in more facilities and lodging. You can stay at the village, or in Jindabyne – 30km away, but with a lively youth-oriented nightlife scene. Accommodation is available in lodges, hotels and self-contained apartments. Both Sydney and Melbourne are a six hour drive away. As with other Australian resorts, a park entry fee applies and if you are self-driving, you must bring snow chains.
