Jindabyne, Gateway town to Kosciuszko National Park in Snowy Monaro, Australia
Lake Jindabyne surrounds the township, providing a central point for water activities and recreation throughout all four seasons of the year.
The original settlement was submerged during the construction of Jindabyne Dam in the 1960s, leading to the complete relocation of the town.
The town holds regular music festivals and sporting events, bringing together local performers and athletes from across New South Wales.
Multiple transportation services connect Jindabyne to nearby ski resorts, with regular buses operating between the town and major Australian cities.
Lake Jindabyne maintains a consistent fish population through regular stocking programs, supporting both recreational and competitive fishing activities.
