Road info
Our access road is open as far as Scott's Saddle at weekends for access to mountain bike and walking tracks . On week days - subject to snow and weather conditions - the road will be open through to the base area from 8am to 5pm. Chains are required on 2WD. The road is not gritted and there are a few rocks to pick through in the Bluffs. Drive with care!
Weather Comment
Great news! Whist the wild nor'wester over the past couple of days has melted out a fair chunk of our recent snow, we are still enjoying a very respectable base on the main trails. And thanks to the flexibility of our amazing seasonal crew we can safely move our scheduled start date forward a couple of weeks. Subject to snow and weather conditions, we plan to open for weekend skiing and riding from 31st May (including King's Birthday public holiday on Monday 2nd June) and then open 7 days a week from Saturday 14th June. So get ready for our first May opening in 16 years - and keep your fingers-crossed for a couple more natural top-ups or some colder temps so we can crank up the snow guns! See you very soon!
