Cara wagstaff finds Victoria’s Mount Hotham is packed with fun for families, first-time skiers and experienced powder hounds.
Mount Hotham feels different from other ski resorts. For starters, the village is atop the mountain, fitting for Victoria’s highest alpine resort. So we begin at the top, ride down and then get a chairlift back up to finish our day.
As we weave along the Great Alpine Road to the resort, we’re excited to catch glimpses of the snow-dusted village. As the snow increases we pull over to fit chains to our Honda CR-V and find Hotham staff already on hand to help.
Village vibes
The mountain’s hub is a pretty confection of design and architecture, with pastel buildings fitted with gently-sloping roofs. At Hotham Central we check in to our accommodation and pick up our passes, a breeze as we’ve booked online and our details are ready in the system.
