Does Australia have ski mountains?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Yes. Winter time sees excellent snowfalls for skiing in the Snowy Mountains region of southeastern New South Wales and northeastern Victoria. Central Tasmania also sees good snowfalls. These falls usually only start in June at the earliest - usually July - and continue through August, tapering off in the early months of Spring. Several of Australia's main snow resorts include the Kosciuszko National Park in NSW (Charlotte's Pass, Thredbo, Blue Cow) and Victoria (Mt Bogong, Fall's Creek, Mt Hotham, etc).

Are there any national parks in a temperate forest?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Yes. Olympic National Park in Washington State. The Ozark Hills are covered in a national forest, Mark Twain, with lots of activities, a temperate forest surrounded by very clean lakes, rivers, and creeks for canoeing. Try Alley Springs Park on the Current River for a park w/great amenities. Also: http://www.nps.gov/buff. Being the first National River park in the US, this is great fun. However, being surrounded by a temperate forest, watch out for the snakes.

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Winter and early Spring are the best seasons for travelling to Darwin. The weather is warm and pleasant without the humidity. Avoid Darwin between November and March as this is the monsoon season.

The advantages of the monsoon season are that the weather remains consistently warm, the storms are spectacular, and travel resources such as accommodation are cheaper.

Tours are running all year and the weather can be glorious, while there is a great variety of food.

Asked by Wiki User

You can't drive from one to the other, and it is about a 2500 km trip. Christchurch is in a whole different country to Brisbane. They're separated by vast amounts of water. Some have kayaked it recently, but other than that, you either catch a 4 hour flight or you hop on a seagoing vessel and hope it gets you there.

When is a good time to travel to Tasmania?

User Avatar

Asked by HorseLoverJazzie

It depends on what the traveller wants. In Winter, visitors can go snow-skiing in some of the mountain areas. In Summer, temperatures are sometimes mild enough for swimming, yet just as comfortable for hiking. It's the best time for northern visitors to tour the island. Autumn and Spring are also good times for hiking and travelling to some of the popular wilderness areas.
