- Ramshead Range
The Ramshead Range is part of the
Snowy Mountains inNew South Wales ,Australia . It extends from Dead Horse Gap in the south (near the New South Wales-Victoria state border) towardsThredbo . It is not far south ofMount Kosciuszko , the highest mainland point in Australia. The peaks of the range are around 2,100 m in altitude and the range is generally covered in snow from June through to October, making it suitable forcross-country skiing . The range is most commonly accessed from Dead Horse Gap or by the Kosciuszko Express Quad Chair at Thredbo.The number of peaks in the Ramshead Range is debatable: however it is commonly accepted that the South Ramshead, the Ramshead proper and the North Ramshead are all proper peaks. The peak between Ramshead and North Ramshead is sometimes known as the 'Central' Ramshead.
