Snowy Monaro Regional Council

Built around the Snowy River catchment, high-country grazing and later the Snowy Mountains Scheme, Snowy Monaro Regional Council has developed into a vast district of alpine ranges, open plains and river valleys in southeastern New South Wales. Kosciuszko National Park occupies much of its western high country, including Mount Kosciuszko, Australia’s highest peak. Lake Jindabyne is a major reservoir of the Snowy Mountains Scheme, the post-war engineering project that produces hydroelectricity and transfers water inland. Cooma and Jindabyne connect the Monaro’s pastoral heritage with mountain travel and winter sports.
