Overview

Set at over 900 m elevation, Jindabyne, NSW, is the beating heart of Australia’s alpine cycling scene. Perched on the edge of Kosciuszko National Park, it’s the ideal launch pad for high-altitude training — where crisp mountain air meets endless climbing. Riders live and breathe in altitude, recover lakeside, and test their mettle on roads that stretch to the sky.

Each day begins with mist rolling off Lake Jindabyne, and ends with golden alpine sunsets — but between those bookends lies pure training magic: long ascents, thin air, switchbacks, and rolling terrain that mimics the Pyrenees or Dolomites. The region’s climbs are legendary among Australian cyclists — Charlotte Pass, Perisher, Dead Horse Gap, and Thredbo River Valley — all offering serious elevation and uninterrupted climbs for 20–40 km at a time.

Your base in Jindabyne provides comfort, access, and atmosphere. Mornings start with coffee by the lake; afternoons might include a recovery dip or lakeside café stop; and evenings settle into the relaxed rhythm of alpine village life. Every ride starts right from your door — no transfers, just rolling straight into the mountains.
