Time Out says

The lush green meadows and high altitudes of Kosciuszko National Park are basically Australia's answer to the Austrian Alps. Read: You can definitely pretend to be an extra in The Sound of Music here. In the springtime, this usually rugged mountain region becomes washed by a delicate flood of pink, yellow and purple wildflowers. There are hundreds of different flower species that grow up in the high country, including 21 that you won't find anywhere else on Earth. You can spot the blooms at their best on the Kosciuszko Summit Walk, by cycling the Thredbo Valley Track, or drive along the Alpine Way from Canberra to Thredbo. 

Best time to see them: From August to early October
