Natural Attractions

Kosciuszko lookout is around 2km from the top of Thredbo’s Kosciuszko Express chairlift (fees apply), on the Kosciuszko walk.

Set amongst alpine herb fields, the lookout gives you panoramic views of Mount Kosciuszko, the upper catchment of the Snowy River, and the rugged, granite tors of the Ramshead Range.

From the lookout you can appreciate the unique silhouette of Australia’s ancient alps. Snow patches that last into the summer months are also unique to this side of the range, and are a reminder of the harsh winter conditions in the Snowy Mountains.
