Description
Join me on an awesome climb to Mount Kosciuszko in the Snowy Mountains. There we’ll take in excellent views of some of the country’s tallest peaks.
Australia is well known for its white sandy beaches and the expansive outback, but did you know it also has great mountains? The Snowy Mountains are the ski and snowboarding hub of Australia in winter. Then, in summer, they turn into an awesome hiking spot.
Situated in the state of New South Wales, Mount Kosciuszko sits at 2,228 meters, making it the tallest mountain in Australia. Climbing Mount Kosciuszko is a great way to explore this part of the country.
On this trip, we’ll hike to the very top which will take us around eight hours. We’ll cover almost 20 km of ground in the process. This is no easy hike and there are some pretty steep sections so you’ll need a good level of fitness to tackle it.
Our trail will begin with a hike through the native Australian bush. After some strenuous uphill hiking, the grassy landscape will start to change to granite rock.
We’ll stop half-way into our hike for a picnic and to enjoy the beautiful nature around us. Then, when we do reach the summit, we’ll take our time to enjoy the Snowy Mountains in all their glory with 360-degree views.
This is an experience you don’t want to miss. Get in touch now to secure your spot on this uniquely Australian hike. If winter sports are also your thing, be sure to check out this winter backcountry ski tour trip to Mountain Kosciuszko.

Thank you explore-share for a wonderful via feratta experience. We have been wanting to learn for a long time but don't have the facilities in Scotland. The guide Mitja was extremely helpful and knowledgeable, answering all my many questions and providing advice. On the day head to take another group but he quickly arranged another guide Borut, who was brilliant. We had a fantastic morning learning via ferrata at Hvadnik in the gorge. It gave us the confidence to later hire our own equipment and go out in Mojstrana. Altogether a five star + experience. Thank you.
