From Jindabyne to the entrance to the Pilot Wilderness Area south of Ingebyra, the Barry Way has two lanes and is paved. In the area of ​​the Wilderness Area it is - like its continuation to the south in the Alpine National Park - unpaved.

In winter, Barry Way may be closed for extended periods due to heavy snowfall and icing.
