Ingebirah adjoins Kosciuszko National Park and is best known for the Snowy Wilderness resort, which offers horse riding, self-contained cottages, and access to over 7,500 acres of alpine bushland. The locality's elevated terrain and proximity to both Jindabyne and the ski fields make it a gateway to winter sports and summer bushwalking.
