Owned and Operated by the Simpson Family we have great area knowledge and also run the 2 Ski Areas. The Simpson family developed and founded Mt Lyford Village and Ski Area so the roots go back far. The area used to be the families farm until the late 80's when the farm was turned into the development with its great snowfall and settled summer weather and is on freehold land which is very unique for a mountain. We have great knowledge of the area from the weather to the extended history and also run Mt Lyford Express which offers transport up to the Ski Resort in winter. ​
​
A park pass can be purchased for those just on a day trip but numbers are limited to keep it uncrowded and exclusive and no vehicle access in summer unless staying at the huts. Purchase @ mtlyfordadventurepark.com
​
Set in the heart of Mt Lyford Adventure Park this private property spans over three mountains from stunning native bush to mountain tops and hidden waterfalls, cascades, streams and tarns.
