Introducing Mt Buller
Three hours’ drive from Melbourne, Mt Buller is Victoria’s largest ski resort. There’s an extensive lift network, including a chairlift that takes you from the day car park directly to the slopes. Cross-country trails link Mt Buller and Mt Stirling.

The downhill skiing area is 180 hectares (snow making covers 44 hectares), and runs are divided into 25% beginner, 45% intermediate and 30% advanced, with a vertical drop of 400m. There are several cool terrain parks for snowboarders. The quad chairlift operates daily in summer from 26 December until 26 January, and then weekends until Easter for mountain-bikers and walkers.
