New era for Mount Perisher in 2025 - Snowy Mountains Magazine
WHEN Perisher closes for the 2025 snow season it will be truly the end of an era for Mount Perisher. When visitors strap into skis and snowboards next year there will be a brand new $25 million six seat Doppelmayer detachable chair awaiting. This coming Sunday, September 15th marks the final day of operation for the Mt Perisher Triple Chair and Perisher will celebrate with a Retro Day with 70's music and entertainment. Guests this year have known there is change coming, they have been without the double chair all season, removed prior to winter, and certainly have noticed the new top station location for the six-seater chair well above the triple chair. The concrete construction gives a great indication of what to expect in 2025. The new Doppelmayr high speed Mt Perisher 6 will breathe new life into the Mount Perisher precinct. During August, Snowy Mountains Magazine ventured to the top to firstly look at the initial completed works. The large concrete mast will be the mainstay of the new lift top station and Australia's highest lifted point at 2042 metres above sea level. Walking around and looking at what to expect, it’s exciting, the view for one is exceptional of the Main Range. Once you unload from the 90 degrees south facing top station you can either drop straight down onto Towers run or towards International and Eyre for groomed choices. Traverse further across the ridgeline opens up multiple options to descend into the off-piste area.
