Friday Flat, Thredbo Live Cam

Friday Flat is the beginners' slope at Thredbo, in the Snowy Mountains of New South Wales in south-east Australia. The webcam looks over the slope and the lift from the bistro.

Thredbo has the longest runs in the country, a little under six kilometres from top to bottom, on a mountain that gives about 670 metres of vertical. The snow is heavy and wet by alpine standards and the season runs from June to early October.

The chairlift keeps working through the summer for walkers: from the top station it is a few kilometres on a raised walkway to Mount Kosciuszko, the highest point in Australia at 2,228 metres and an easy stroll from that height.
