Overview
  • Join us on the scenic drive to this magical winter wonderland. This family friendly mountain resort guarantees a memorable experience of action and adventure. Visit Lake Mountain, Melbourne's closest snow resort, with its picturesque chalets overlooking the mountains surrounded by miles of cross-country ski tracks and toboggan fields. Make a snowman, try tobogganing, take a cross country ski lesson or just throw some snowballs!

    Our bus drives right up to the snow so there's no need to take any ski lifts or transfer buses. Once on the mountain, you'll have 3 hours to marvel at the beauty and revel in snow play, jump on the thrilling flying fox or tube runs, shoot down exhilarating toboggan slopes and explore the network of world-class cross country ski trails. When we're done with the snow, we'll visit the stunning Steavenson Waterfall in Marysville, some of the tallest in Victoria, before getting your taste buds tingling with a stop off at the Yarra Valley Chocolaterie and Ice Creamery. We recommend the deliciously smooth Hot Chocolate to finish the day right!

In the afternoon you set off for a 700-metre walk to the spectacular and awe-inspiring Steavenson Falls, one of the highest waterfalls in Victoria.

The waterfall was named after John Steavenson, an Assistant Commissioner of Roads and Bridges who visited Marysville in 1862. The waters plummet 84 metres into the Steavenson River Valley. Today, the waterfall is the heart of the 190-hectare Steavenson Falls Scenic Reserve.

Steavenson Falls has become a popular tourist destination in Marysville since the 1860s. You will love it because of its distinct allure and amazing natural beauty. With 5 cascades and a total of 122 meters of descent, you’ll stand in awe of this natural wonder.
