Jindabyne Trip

We are back from our Jindabyne and Snowy Mountain trip. We all had a fabulous time. We stayed at the Jindabyne Lake Hotel and was looked after very well. Three meals a day and very comfortable and warm rooms. Our daily trips included Thredbo, Charlotte’s Pass, Cooma, Kosciuszko National Park, Jindabyne area and Bombala and Delgety. Our trip included visits to Thredbo village, chairlift ride up to Eagle’s Nest, Gaden Fish Hatchery, the Snowy Mountains Hydro Scheme Museum, Wildberry Distillery, the National Parks Museum Jindabyne and the Cooma correctional facility where our tour guide was one of the inmates. A highlight occurred on the first day on our trip from Tumut to Jindabyne when the weather closed in and it began to snow. Many of us had never experienced it snowing before and got very excited. Another highlight was the Thredbo ski lift ride over quite a thick snow covering. The visit to the Cooma Gaol was an unusual activity and Gareth and Mick our guides were very friendly, knowledgeable and informative. On the whole a very enjoyable trip.
