Question 10

How to I get to perisher valley/the unit?

Accepted Answer

The choice of transportation to reach the unit in Perisher depends on various factors, including convenience, cost, and personal preferences. Here are some considerations for each mode of transportation:
1. Ski Tube and parking at Bullocks Flat:
 • The Skitube Alpine Railway is a convenient and unique way to access Perisher Valley. It operates between Bullocks Flat and Perisher Valley.
 • Pros: Skitube provides direct access to the snowfields without the need for driving in alpine conditions. It's a scenic and efficient mode of transportation.
 • Cons: You may need to consider the schedule of the Skitube, and it may be less flexible than driving your own vehicle, and national park fees apply daily when parking at Bullocks flat.
