Northern Kosciuszko National Park reopened to the public - Snowy Mountains Magazine

After an extended closure that commenced two months prior to the 2024 winter, the northern Kosciuszko National Park is now open for visitors. The NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service (NPWS) closes much of this northern section of the park to traffic every winter, while parts of the national park are covered in snow. This closure does not affect any of the resort precincts which remain open for tourism and recreational activities including skiing and snowboarding. This year’s closure started two months early to enable implementation of measures under the Wild Horse Heritage Management Plan, as well as the control of pigs, deer and other feral animals. During the closure the NPWS conducted aerial and ground culling of wild horses, deer and pigs.
