Mt Baw Baw Snow Resort

Mt Baw Baw Alpine Resort offers a compact yet complete snow experience just 2.5 hours from Melbourne. As Victoria's closest downhill ski area to the capital, it provides an accessible alpine getaway without the long drive. The resort features gentle slopes perfect for beginners and families, alongside more challenging terrain for experienced skiers and snowboarders. With accommodation options ranging from cosy lodges to self-contained apartments, Mt Baw Baw delivers an authentic Victorian alpine experience on a smaller, more approachable scale.

The Mt Baw Baw lift network includes seven lifts serving 15 hectares of skiable terrain. The system features two T-bars, three poma lifts, and two magic carpets dedicated to beginners. While modest in size compared to larger Australian resorts, the lift arrangement efficiently services the mountain's 30+ hectares of terrain, minimising queue times even during peak periods. The layout allows skiers and boarders of all abilities to access suitable runs without complicated traverses, making it particularly friendly for families with mixed skill levels.
