About Mt Buller
Easy to get to, so hard to leave! Mt Buller is the most accessible ski resort in Australia. Located 3 hours’ drive from Melbourne, no other Australian ski resort is closer to a capital city or international airport.
With vast and varied terrain for all levels, more accommodation options than any other Victorian resort and a variety of bars and restaurants, Mt Buller truly in a winter wonderland.
Mt Buller boasts the most extensive snow making system in the Southern Hemisphere, the 'Snowfactory' that will continuously produce snow 24 hours a day, 7 days a week at temperatures well above freezing. With this technology, Mt Buller is able to offer a snow guarantee, promising that there will be snow for Queen's Birthday opening weekend. All this means that there is no more wondering if it's safe to book a ski holiday in June!
Accommodation
Mt Buller offers a wide range of accommodation to suit all budgets, from simple 3-star hotel rooms and self-catering apartments to luxurious slope side alpine retreats. All properties are based in the village at the bottom of the mountain meaning that it's just a short walk to the slopes.
