After spending a couple of days in the deep Snow Mountains range in the tourist hub village of Thredbo, we started to make our way down the slopes towards the North, to home in Sydney. During the six hour trip we passed through some mesmerising lakes, beautiful country towns, and typical Aussie open roads reminding you of cizilization through the presence of farm animals, mostly big cows.
Lake Jyndabyne dominates the landscape just down Thredbo and seems to have become a way of life for the people in the area as well as large number of tourists. The lake seemed to act almost like an ocean as people seem to be relaxing in the beach and doing water activities, with added advantage of having no sharks to worry about!
If you are staying near the lake you can stay in a hotel that boundaries the lake and basically live right on it, and go boating, kayaking and other stuff.
