The Kosciuszko Cross Country Ski School is a collective of APSI (www.apsi.net.au) trained and qualified Nordic Ski Instructors based in the Snowy Mountains Australia. We conduct lessons for beginners, intermediate and advanced cross country skiers and cater to all age groups from the very young to the wise skiers who still love and understand that nordic skiing keeps you fit, young and very happy.

The Kosciuszko Cross Country Ski School supports and subsidises the training of young athletes in Australia to open future career pathways and options. Based in Perisher NSW in the Snowy Mountains you can find us at the Perisher Nordic Shelter or email: [email protected] or SMS: 61 402 298 821. The cross country ski community in Australia is strong and evolving as people return to the sector and skiers switch from alpine to cross country where the trails are long and quiet, the snow gums shelter skiers and the views are resplendent. Experience the quiet beauty of cross country skiing! Each year senior Instructors Zac Zaharias and Warren Feakes take Australia cross country skiers overseas to Silverstar in December and Les Saisies in France in January. Join us in Australia and overseas for fantastic cross country skiing.
