About Paddy Pallin Jindabyne
Paddy Pallin is one of Australia's most iconic outdoor adventure retailers, and their Jindabyne store is a cornerstone of the Snowy Mountains outdoor community. Named after the legendary bushwalker who founded the company in 1930, Paddy Pallin Jindabyne combines nearly a century of outdoor expertise with a comprehensive rental fleet and retail offering that serves hikers, skiers, and adventurers year-round.
In winter, they offer ski and snowboard rental packages for Thredbo and Perisher, including boots, helmets, and clothing hire. In summer, the focus shifts to hiking and camping gear — packs, tents, sleeping bags, cooking equipment, and navigation tools for those tackling the trails of Kosciuszko National Park, including the summit walk to Australia's highest peak. Their staff are qualified outdoor professionals who can advise on gear selection, route planning, and weather conditions.
Paddy Pallin's heritage sets them apart from purely commercial rental operations. The Jindabyne team are genuine outdoor enthusiasts — bushwalkers, climbers, backcountry skiers — who use the gear they sell and rent. Their local knowledge of Kosciuszko National Park's trail conditions, snow coverage, and seasonal highlights is invaluable for planning a successful mountain adventure.
