Welcome to Yalara

Your base camp in the heart of Perisher

Yalara is a much-loved lodge just 400 metres from the lifts at Perisher, in the New South Wales Snowy Mountains. Built in 1964, the lodge accommodates 24 people across nine bedrooms on two levels.

Upstairs you'll find a large communal kitchen, a lounge with back-country views and a dining room. Downstairs is a games room with a pool table, a second TV room, a drying room, boot racks and plenty of ski & snowboard storage. WiFi is available in the lounge.

Yalara is a self-catering lodge - costs are kept low because guests cook in the communal kitchen and share a few light cleaning duties. Members and their approved guests are welcome all year round.
