Stay in the Heart of Kosciuszko National Park

Australia's highest tourist park, at Sawpit Creek — native wildlife at the door, campfires when restrictions allow and Perisher just 14 km up the road.

Welcome to Kosciuszko Tourist Park

Your gateway to the Snowy Mountains

Nestled within the serene Kosciuszko National Park, our park is a paradise for nature lovers and outdoor adventurers. A short drive from Australia's highest peak, we offer everything from Heritage Chalets to camping sites, all set in the tranquility of natural bushland.

Whether you're here for skiing at Perisher Valley, 14 kilometres away, or exploring the alpine landscapes in summer, the park is the perfect base — with a guest lounge, camp kitchen and drying room, surrounded by snowgum forest and native wildlife.
