The Perisher XC Centre Trails and Conditions Report
Fri, Sep 19th, 2025 6:02 am
4Site have been out since late afternoon taking advantage of the freeze and rebuilding and maintaining what they can on the Valley Trail, 2.5km and the 3.5km loop doing their best to put back together the impact of mother nature over the last few days. They are back now out doing some further work so early skiers please beware.
Today unfortunately promises to bring more warm temperatures and potential rain later in the day. Conditions will be firm early but will soften quickly and the wind is picking up throughout the day so choose your timing to match what you would prefer. As ever please ski with care with creeks, rocks and vegetation appearing with increased regularity which may need careful traversing.
Saturday sees the Smiggins Bowl in the afternoon at 2pm come along.
We have a very big collection of gloves, coats and beanies in the lost property area so have a check on your ski gear, make contact via email and we will do our best to reunite clothing and owners. If you prefer to text, send a message to John:0431816923.
