Mount Buller located in Victoria, Northern East from Melbourne, Australia. Our trip start at Melbourne taking a 5.30am tour bus ride from Federal Square to Mount Buller. It took almost 4 hours to reach Mount Buller. We stayed overnight at Victoria Skii Resort on Mount Buller. For first timer, please engage yourself with tour guide company where they manage booking of your ski item and couching lesson for ski or snowboarding. If you are planning yourself to overnight, i recommend you to take 2 days rental of your ski/snowboard/tobogganing because time between from 10am to 4pm, the place is still crowded. After 4pm, You can freely ski but there will be no supervision assistant. Lastly if you are overnight, wake up early next day and go to the summit of Mount Buller (you need to walk all the way up as the ski lift ride still only start operating at 10am) to catch the sunrise!!!

#favouriteitinerary My snow day at Mt Buller was an absolute delight! From the moment I arrived, I was enchanted by the pristine, snow-covered landscape. The skiing and snowboarding facilities were fantastic, catering to all skill levels. I spent the day gliding down the slopes, enjoying the crisp mountain air and breathtaking views. The après-ski scene was equally enjoyable, with cozy lodges offering delicious hot chocolate and warm meals. The friendly staff and well-organized services made the experience seamless and stress-free. Mt Buller is a perfect destination for snow enthusiasts seeking adventure and relaxation in a stunning winter wonderland. Highly recommended!

🇦🇺Mt buller skiing｜Come to the snow mountain to be a snowboard wrestler The southern hemisphere is open for skiing. One of the main purposes of coming to Melbourne this time is skiing. I've only skied on double boards before, so this time I want to try single boards You can refer to some tips for beginners going to the ski resort 1️⃣Round trip from Melbourne city 🚗 The car-free party directly signed up for a small group transfer in the snow mountain It is recommended that you choose a more comfortable car. The journey takes about 3 hours. 2️⃣ Cable car ticket ➕ Snowboard group lesson 🚠 As a beginner, I still signed up for a lesson. It’s very cost-effective to buy it together with the cable car ticket! At that time, we had one coach leading 6 people. Our coach was very patient! It is a hands-on teaching and encouraging education. The class time is about 2 hours 3️⃣ Snow suit ➕ knee pads ➕ helmet 👕 Because the official rental snow suits and helmets on the mountain are a bit ugly I rented it in the city and brought it with me. I also rented cartoon knee pads (which really saved my life. I fell a lot and had a lot of bad luck as a newbie) 4️⃣Snowboard and snowshoes🏂 It's a bit troublesome to carry these two, so I chose to rent them directly at the ski resort, which is more convenient. There are also helmets provided, but I didn't take them when I rented a snow suit. ❄️About the ski resort Generally speaking, it is quite suitable for beginners. The halfway point is a beginner-friendly area. If you are more daring/technical, you can take the cable car to the top of the mountain and ski down. The snow on the mountain is much thicker than that halfway up the mountain, and the slope is more challenging. 🍽️About eating There is a cafe halfway up the mountain where you can order some white fast food such as pizza The restaurant still mainly serves steak, pizza, fish and chips. There is also a restaurant and lounge near the snowsuit and snowshoe rental shop (with hot water for instant noodles) 📝In general, it is still highly recommended (when I went there it was not a weekend and there were not many people) I think the distance from the city and the conditions of the ski resort are a good compromise.

| Everyone in Victoria is skiing at Mt Buller! Australia WHV | Everyone in Victoria is skiing at Mt Buller! I've been on the mountain for a whole week now. Housekeeping isn't difficult. Thanks to the team-based cleaning approach, with everyone having their own tasks, I'm not too tired after work every day. But every time I go out, I'm both excited and worried about the different road conditions, afraid of falling. If you're cleaning an apartment, you can take a car to different places on the mountain. The snowy world is so beautiful. Life on the mountain is more exciting than in a remote town. Because everyone working here truly loves skiing, everyone is eager to work more shifts and earn more money. When we finish work early, we immediately change into our gear and hit the slopes. Because of the school holidays, every ski slope is super crowded, but that's okay. Ski Night starts this week. Skiing hours are extended to 8:30 pm, which feels like a great employee benefit. Housekeeping shifts have also increased this week, which is much better. Every day working on the snowy mountain is a true working holiday. Mt Buller might continue hiring, so if you're interested, keep an eye on the official website.

It takes 3 hours to get there from the city center early in the morning, and 6 hours round trip if you don't stay there. 💰Per capita consumption: Ski boots + snowboard $80aud+, cable car $190aud + parking for one vehicle $60+ There were a lot of people and the snow was not particularly thick. When I got to the top, I could already see the grass and was skiing on the grass. Even if you haven't been there, you still think it's worth a visit.

Our short family trip to Mt. Buller in Melbourne, Australia was an absolute blast! From start to finish, it was filled with adventure, laughter, and unforgettable memories. ⛷️🎿 ❄️The journey to Mt.

The instructors were patient and helpful, making it a fun learning experience for everyone. Even if you're not into skiing or snowboarding, there are plenty of opportunities for snow play. We had snowball fights, built snowmen, and went tobogganing. It was pure joy to watch the kids and adults alike relishing in the snow. The views from the mountain are simply stunning. We took the chairlift to the summit and were treated to panoramic vistas of the surrounding alpine landscape. It was a great photo opportunity.This trip provided the perfect environment for family bonding🦄✨ #awesomepic

Take the Klook tour group minibus from Melbourne city, about 3000 per person, it is very convenient not to drive yourself, but the disadvantage is that the minibus is really small, the seat is super crowded, and the journey is super long, it takes eight hours to go back and forth, and your butt is almost rotten. If you happen to meet a very noisy passenger, it will be really painful to chat loudly all the way. Because you will stop at the ski equipment rental place at the foot of the mountain, the time is longer, but the scenery on the road is very beautiful, especially when you are close to the snow mountain. There are many sheep and cows on a large grassland, which is just like in a painting. The same is true on the mountain. Taking the cable car is super fun. A round trip costs about NT$800. You must take it, my dears. #skiing #Mount Buller #Melbourne #winter
