Mount Baw Baw Alpine Resort
Mount Baw Baw Alpine Resort, Australia
Mt. Baw Baw Alpine Resort is an Australian downhill ski resort located approximately 120 kilometres (75 mi) east of Melbourne and 50 kilometres (31 mi) north of the Latrobe Valley in Victoria. The Alpine Resort is an unincorporated area which is surrounded by the Baw Baw National Park and the Australian Alps Walking Track passes nearby. The summit of Mount Baw Baw (1567m) falls within the boundaries of the resort and is accessible by lift or walking trail. The resort is also a base for cross-country skiing on the Baw-Baw Plateau. The resort is the closest downhill ski resort to Melbourne and takes 2.5 hours to reach. Road access to the resort is via the Mount Baw Baw Tourist Road (from the west) or the unsealed South Face Road (from the east). In 2018, Mt. Baw Baw became the second ski resort in Australia to operate a TechnoAlpin Snow Factory capable of producing snow in any outdoor temperature.
