Canberra Alpine Club | Snowboarding in Snowy River Shire

Established in 1934, the Canberra Alpine Club is a welcoming sports club located in the beautiful Snowy River Shire Council. Known for its friendly atmosphere and club spirit, the club prides itself on catering to members of all ages and abilities. While winter sports are a major focus, the Canberra Alpine Club offers much more than just skiing and snowboarding.

The club boasts two lodges that provide members and their guests with the best of both worlds. Choose to stay on the picturesque shores of Lake Jindabyne or enjoy the convenience of being directly on the slopes of Perisher. This ensures that members can enjoy the stunning Snowy Mountains all year round, whether they prefer to partake in winter activities or explore the area during the warmer months.

The rich history of the Canberra Alpine Club dates back to its formation in July 1934 at Kiandra, the birthplace of skiing in Australia. The club's first chalet was built in 1938 at Mount Franklin, and its primary objective has always been to promote skiing, bushwalking, and foster alpine conservation. While the club has evolved to include a wide range of activities, its founding principles have remained the same.

In the latest news section of the club, visitors can find updates on recent events and achievements. Honorary Life Members, Lyndall Hatch and Judy Lejins, share their memories of bumper snow seasons, providing a glimpse into the club's vibrant community. Members can also read about Val Guseli winning a silver medal in the snowboard halfpipe at the FIS World Championships, as well as other significant accomplishments by Australian athletes.

The club's useful links section provides easy access to resources and information related to snow sports and the Snowy Mountain region. Links to popular ski resorts like Perisher and Thredbo are included, along with weather forecasts, snow reports, and information about cross-country skiing. Visitors can also find useful resources from organisations like Snow Australia, the Kosciuszko Huts Association, and the National Parks and Wildlife.

With its strong community spirit, friendly atmosphere, and diverse range of activities, the Canberra Alpine Club is a go-to sports club for all snow enthusiasts. Whether for winter sports or year-round alpine adventures, the club offers something for everyone. So join the adventure, make lifelong memories, and experience the beauty of the Snowy Mountains with the Canberra Alpine Club.
