Become a winter person with a Winternship this Off Season

Your Winternship host is the Gorge Scenic Chairlift, located in beautiful Cataract Gorge, Launceston Tasmania. As the Scenic Seat-warmer Wintern, you’ll be responsible for making sure our historic chairlift is running smoothly – and if the views don’t take your breath away, the fresh air sure will. Your work will be rewarded with a magical ride through the gorge on a winter's evening - imagine being surrounded by the shimmer of fairy lights and lanterns as the evening deepens, catching a glimpse of a peering possum as the first stars start twinkling in the night sky. Your smile will be wide and your heart warm, but you might want to bring some mittens to keep your fingers toasty.

If you can say that tongue twister and can take to the trails without training wheels, your Winternship host Blue Derby Pods Ride will have you gripping winter by the handlebars as a Trail Trialler. Learn the layout of the mountain trails, keeping your feet on the pedals at all times, you will earn your mud stripes before resting your legs next to a blazing campfire, refuelling with a hearty local menu and finally collapsing into a cloud-like bed inside an off-grid Pod in the forest. Do you have the grit to go off-road and off-grid this winter?
