Jindabyne is a scenic town sitting on the shore of Lake Jindabyne with the majestic Snowy Mountains gracing the distant horizon. The charming town is far from sleepy, as tourists visit the region year-round. While the warmer months are perfect for nature hikes and enjoying the lush greenery, the hillsides turn a rich golden yellow during autumn. However, winter is perhaps Jindabyne’s busiest time as the town serves as a gateway to nearby ski slopes and winter ski resorts. The lake also offers many activities and is a favorite with anglers planning to take on the resident Brook Trout and Atlantic Salmon population. Why not make the trip to this picturesque region more memorable by staying at an idyllic country house on a farm? While you’re mulling over it, take a look at these top farm stays near Jindabyne, Australia.

The image galleries get refreshed with the latest updates regularly. They were last updated on April 13, 2024.
