A 59-year-old man who spent a chilly night outdoors in the NSW Snowy Mountains has been found safe and well, police say.

A search operation had been launched by police after the man failed to return to a property in Khancoban, a small town nestled in the foothills of the western face of the Snowy Mountains, on Saturday.

The man, from the Riverina town of Moama, had set out with a friend at 7.30am from Waterfall Farm Road, Khancoban. The two men separated at about 9.30am and had made plans to reunite later in the morning, but when the 59-year-old fail to return, his friend raised the alarm.

Police say the man was located just after 11am on Sunday near Khancoban.

Snow has been falling as low as 900 metres with the Bureau of Meteorology putting a severe weather warning on the Snowy Mountains on Sunday.
