Overview

Here comes your best chance to experience snow hiking! Be on top of Australia’s highest peak and tick off your bucket list with one of the 7 Summits of the World!

Considered one of the best walks in the world, the trek to Mt. Kosciuszko’s summit during winter is definitely a one-of-a-kind adventure. This hike is specially catered to those who wish to experience snow trekking alongside snow-capped mountains but don’t have much time to spend in the outdoors (it only takes half a day to complete the trek). It is perfect for those who wish to try using snow crampons while walking in below 0 C and be welcomed in a cozy place to spend the night with a comfortable and warm bed after the hike.

This trip also gives you an opportunity to try winter sports such as skiing and snowboarding.

Be part of our Trail Adventours team as we head to Australia’s highest summit this August 2020!
