Sunset Snowshoe Experience

Embrace ‘golden hour’ with a scenic snowshoeing adventure (1.5 hours) into pristine alpine wilderness surprisingly close but worlds away from the Hotham village centre. No experience needed, minimal fitness required. Snowshoes hire included.

Snowshoeing is a magical way to explore this winter alpine environment up close at a human pace – the only way really since you’d sink in normal walking boots.

Enjoy an unforgettable experience walking on top of the snow, on top of the world while viewing a breathtaking sunset light show that looks different every single day.

Tours run Wednesday and Saturday at Hotham and Thursdays at Dinner Plain subject to snow and weather conditions – start and finish times change with the sunset through the season.

Intro to Cross Country

Learn to cross country ski and go free-range. No crowds, no lifts, no passes. XC is your key to exploring this winter wonderland at your own pace, powered by you.

Practice the basics of weight transfer and efficient glide to get you started exploring the trails. Recommended for anyone who’s enjoyed other snow-sliding activities before.

XC skis may look similar to other skis, but the mechanics are quite different. Although you’re still sliding on snow, it takes some understanding and practice to stay upright and get around efficiently.
