SNOW FOR SCHOOL HOLIDAYS

26 September 2020

26 September 11am: 

Woo hoo! A spring dump of over 40cms of fresh snow has blanketed the resort making for school holiday snowplay heaven for regional Victorians.

The fresh snow has been dumping and is snowing beautifully now (Saturday morning) with skies forecast to clear to a sunny Monday.  The cold front has delivered perfect conditions for snowplay, tobogganing, snowman building and snowball throwing.   The Mt Buller Village Snow Play Park is open for sliding and fun on the pow!

The road to Mt Buller and Mt Stirling is open and entry is FREE allowing locals to enjoy this spring surprise. 

  • Cars can drive to Mt Buller Village (road conditions and capacity permitting)
  • All vehicles must stop at the resort entry gate for capacity and contact tracing, temperature and regional Victoria address checks
  • Wheel chains may required and daily advice is posted here
  • Please drive carefully and to the conditions. If you are driving slowly or fitting/removing chains pull over in the side bays to allow others to overtake.
  • Public toilets and shelters are open.
  • COVID safety plans are in operation so wear your mask, keep a safe distance and if you are unwell please stay safe at home.

Due to the closures earlier in the season there are limited venues open at Mt Buller for food and drinks including Coffee Garage (The Whitt), The Villager and the Grocer.

Georges Ski Hire is open this weekend for ski and snowboard rental and has an extensive range of beanies, gloves, accessories and souvenirs.  The Alpine Central next to the Village Snow Play Park is open for tourist information and maps during office hours.
