Merritts Gondola Community Launch

Posted on 24 Jun, 2020 in Community

It’s shiny, it’s new and it’s here! Sunday marked a big milestone as Thredbo’s local community turned out to celebrate the community launch of the hugely anticipated Merritts Gondola.

Mother Nature turned on the snow as Stuart Diver, General Manager of Thredbo Resort, led the Merritts Gondola community opening and welcomed key local community members aboard for their inaugural ride. The event was number restricted to ensure socila distancing. This massive project was a big community effort and it was amazing to see so many excited locals take part in this significant moment in Thredbo’s history.

On their ride up to Merritts Gondola Top Station the lucky passengers checked out the 360-degree views from the cosy cabins. A snowy landscape greeted community members stepping out onto Merritts Mountain House’s new deck and you could feel the winter stoke for the season ahead.

With Merritts Gondola launching to the public today the winter season is definitely here!
