Situated at the base of the Snowy Mountains Jindabyne is the main shopping and accommodation centre for the ski resorts of Thredbo and Perisher-Blue. Although there is accommodation at the ski resorts many people choose to stay in Jindabyne as it is much cheaper, has a variety of attractions both day and night and is only 40 minutes away from either resort.
The town is situated on a picturesque lake which was man made after a dam was built flooding the valley in 1967. In the summer months the lake is a hive of activity with sailing, windsurfing, waterskiing and fantastic trout and salmon fishing.
Jindabyne
has grown steadily over the years and now boasts many great shops and restaurants,
3 hotels and a variety of nightclubs. Ski and snowboard hire is also available
at reasonable prices and transport to the ski fields runs every day during
the winter.
A new town on the sloping shore of Lake Jindabyne – the old settlement
was drowned by Jindabyne Dam in 1967.
