You should escape the city this Easter and head to Jindabyne—this is why
Posted on
With its enchanting lake, mountainous views, and a long list of eateries, it’s easy to see why we recommend spending your Easter long weekend in Jindabyne.
Because while this cute town is frequently used as a stopover between our favourite ski resorts, Jindabyne stands on its own as a charming getaway. Here are four reasons to escape the hustle and bustle of Canberra, and head to the NSW Snowy Mountains.
