Easy & downhill = anticlockwise. From the top of the chairlift, the track branches off to the left of the summit track. Many families with children were seen taking this option.
Moderate & uphill = clockwise. Starting from the Thredbo village chapel, follow the Thredbo River Walk for about 2 hours of relatively flat track along the stream. Look out for wombat burrows along the way. When you reach the car park on Alpine Way, the track heads uphill for about 2 hours until meeting the Kosciuszko summit track and the top of the chairlift. Stop in for a drink at Australia’s highest restaurant, but be aware that it closes early, just prior to the last chairlift down.
