  Thredbo, New South Wales - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Thredbo (36°30′S 148°18′E) is a village and ski resort in the Snowy Mountains of New South Wales, Australia, in the Snowy River Shire.
It is built in the valley of the Thredbo River, formerly known as the Crackenback River, at the foot of the Ramshead Range.
Thredbo is regarded by some as the best NSW ski resort when fully covered, but because of the low altitude (1365m) of its base, the resort does not always keep snow on the lower half as the temperatures are too high to sustain it there.
