What You need to know

All vehicles entering the resort must carry wheel chains.

Pre-purchase and print your resort entry dashboard pass at home for express entry. If you can't, visit our friendly team at Resort Entry who can print it for you.

Display your Resort Entry dashboard pass in your windsheild and drive up to the carpark, where you will be directed to a space.

Book your Ride Share to transfer yourself and your luggage to your accommodation.

If you are bringing a vehicle with 9+ people, you will need to purchase the 'Minibus' Resort Entry product per passanger.

BEFORE ARRIVING

Print your Resort Entry Dashboard pass before you leave and have it ready to show at the gate.

If you cannot print ahead of time, stop by the staff booths at the Mirimbah Entry Gate to get it printed for you.

Pick up chains before entering the resort. By law, all vehicles must carry wheel chains after the Mirimbah Entry Gate. You will be instructed if you need to fit them on your car when driving up the mountain.

Arriving

As you enter the resort, our parking team will direct you to the next available parking area in the overnight carpark.

At the carpark you will be met by Ride Share Transfers (or your Private Transfer if you’ve pre-organised this) to take you and your luggage to your village accommodation.

What is a Ride Share?

A Ride Share are the minibuses that take you and your luggage directly from the overnight carpark to your accommodation. If you are driving to Mt Buller and staying overnight, you will need to buy Ride Share in addition to your Resort Entry.

Book your Ride Share alonside your overnight Resort Entry, in the above blue e-commerce module.

View and manage your Ride Share booking through BusIO.

Only authorised vehicles are permitted to drive into the Mt Buller Village.

Parking for overnight visitors is located 2-4km below the Village. Take note (or a photo) of where you are parked - there are 11 parking lots!

Got an electric vehicle? Find an EV charger conveniently located at the Horse Hill carpark. Ask parking staff when you arrive where to go.

Departing

At the end of your stay you will need to book your departure time for your Ride Share or Private Transfer to transport you and your luggage from your accommodation back to your vehicle.

Book your return Ride Share through BusIO.

Clear the snow from your vehicle before driving. It is safer and required by law.
