PERISHER ANNOUNCES EXTENDED SNOW SEASON AFTER GREAT SNOWFALLS AND WONDERFUL SPRING SNOW CONDITIONS!

After being the first Australian ski resort to open for skiing and boarding in 2014 on June 7, Perisher,  Australia’s favourite ski resort announced today that it will be extending its season until October 10, again providing the longest ski season in Australia!

The 2014 snow season has seen some of the biggest snowfalls in decades with over two metres of snow falling in a two week period, setting up the season to be one of the best ever in terms of snow depth and consistency.

With great snowfalls over the past three days and more snow expected into next week, spring conditionsare as good as they have ever been with Perisher offering fantastic skiing and boarding across the four resort areas of Perisher Valley, Smiggin Holes, Guthega and Blue Cow. With up to 47 lifts operating including the NEW $4 million Freedom Quad Chairlift in Guthega there is terrain on offer for all ages and abilities.

The official snow depth, as measured by Snowy Hydro, is 1.54 metres at Spencer’s Creek just outside of Perisher.

“Thanks to the amazing snowfalls that we received during July, super cold nights enabling great snowmaking through August and now more fresh snow in the first few days of September Perisher is experiencing some of the best spring skiing and snowboarding conditions that we’ve seen for many years” said Peter Brulisauer, Perisher’s CEO today. “With these fantastic conditions we are pleased to announce that we will be extending our snow season and staying open through until 10 October.”

With these fantastic snow conditions now is the time to plan a visit to Perisher this snow season. Right through Spring Perisher is offering skiing and boarding from just $79 per day based on a 3 day lift ticket and accommodation options to suit all budgets starting from just $79 per night.
