Skiing Perisher in 2025: What Gear to Bring + Local Tips

 Heading to Perisher for the 2025 ski season? You’re in for one of Australia’s biggest and most versatile ski areas—with terrain for beginners, pros, and everyone in between. But before you pack your bags (or boardbag), let’s break down exactly what gear you need to bring and share some insider tips to make your trip smooth, fun, and Instagram‑ready.  


🎿 Should You Rent or Bring Your Own Gear?

Rent skis, boots, poles at Perisher—they’ll fit them on-site and help with setup. But bring your own snowwear: it’s more comfortable, cleaner, and fits your style. Rentals: okay. Hiked-in gloves: absolutely not.

Category 2 or 3 lens with anti-fog is perfect for Perisher’s changeable weather—snow, sun, clouds all in one day.
