Ah yes, that amazing time of year when I scroll through the #MtHotham jobs list for the upcoming 2026 winter and dream of spending an entire winter at a ski resort, before reality hits and I remember that my body is pretty drained after 3-4 days of being at altitude and in very cold weather.

Heavy snow "caught travellers unaware".

What??

It's been forecast for a WEEK.

They need to pay for the emegency services used.

Hi Jen! Good question!!

Generally Australia does not experience wide spread #snow falls during #winter but we do have what’s knows as our #HighCountry in the State of Victoria.

We do have #snowfields, good skiing in general. Most of Victoria's alpine resorts lie to the north-east of Melbourne. Anywhere from say 2 to 4.5 hrs drive from our capital city Melbs.

These are a few of Victoria’s snowfields: #LakeMountain, #MtBawBaw, #MtBuller and #MtStirling, #MtHotham and #FallsCreek.

These👇are stock photos (source: https://www.visitvictoria.com/see-and-do/outdoor-and-adventure/snow-and-skiing/mt-buller and various), and #snow will start dumping early next month im guessing.

#newsouthwales has awesome snowfields. The largest ski resort in the #SouthernHemisphere is #Perisher. It has 47 lifts, plenty of runs, five terrain parks and around 100km of cross country trails. In #Thredbo you can ski Australia’s longest runs.

The Australian State of a #Tasmania, the island located to the south of Victoria, experiences flurries and snow falls throughout winter too. It’s closer to the #SouthPole. #Tassie is a gorgeous part of our country. 👏👍

PS I’m sure I’ve left out a load of other locations.
