Mt Buller is more than just a ski hill; it’s a vibrant part of Victoria’s winter culture and outdoor recreation identity. Its history spans back to the 1920s when it began developing as a ski destination, growing steadily into the bustling resort it is today. The conservation efforts in the area protect the fragile alpine flora and fauna, including native wombats and wallabies, who sometimes make appearances around the village edges.

Whether you seek thrilling runs, tranquil walks in the snow-covered forest, or a day of family fun against a stunning alpine backdrop, the Mt Buller Winter 1 Day Tour offers a uniquely accessible and enriching winter adventure just outside Melbourne’s urban sprawl.
