Head for the hills

The Nest and The Crest are perched atop Crackenback Ridge in Thredbo Valley, NSW – just on the cusp of Kosciuszko National Park – the retreat from the city hustle to the hills is roughly a 5-6 hour drive from Sydney, a 2-hour drive from Canberra and an 8-hour drive from Melbourne.

Crackenback is home to an abundance of wildlife and is enclosed by rugged mountains and crisp clear rivers which have formed over millions of years. These rentals sit on a 100-acre bushland property, accessed from The Alpine Way. The land is home to wombats, echidnas, wallabies, lyrebirds, and plenty of birds. It is a slice of alpine paradise that offers guests an enriching experience regardless of the weather and time of year.

The property is surrounded by miles of bike trails and walking tracks, as well as close access to Australia’s best ski resorts. It’s an ideal home base for the avid adventurer and you’ll gain access to local intel (just ask your hosts). The property is only a short drive from Jindabyne and Crackenback Resort – so you’ll have easy access to supplies.

It’s the ideal spot to sit still and unwind and the perfect base to explore everything the expansive Snowy Mountains Region has to offer.
