Overnight parking is not permitted in the Smiggins public car parks.

Gunuma has 6 on-site parking spaces for 20 rooms. Parking must be booked online at the same time as your room booking.

Parking bays are available from 4:00 pm on your arrival day, unless your allocated bay is vacant earlier.

Using your allocated parking space

If you have booked a Gunuma parking space:

  1. Collect your numbered parking tag from the WHM or House Captain when you arrive.
  2. Display the tag clearly on your dashboard.
  3. Park rear to kerb for safety and snow clearance.
  4. If you have a 2WD, snow chains must be fitted in winter while parked at the lodge.
  5. Return your parking tag before leaving so it can be used by the next guest.

If you don’t have a Gunuma parking space
