  • Situated atop some of Victoria's highest mountains, Hotham proudly holds the title of the state's powder capital and stands as the sole upside ski resort in the southern hemisphere. Perched along the Great Alpine Road at an elevation of 1,750m, the central village serves as a gateway to the resort, with 80% of its ski trails nestled in the valleys below. Hotham is home to an unconventional experience when it comes to ski resorts, where instead of boarding a chairlift at the base village, you park you car at the top of the resort and then drop into one of the many runs located below the village.
    But do these unique aspects make Hotham one of the best ski resorts in Australia? In this video we will go through a complete overview of Hotham and cover everything the resort zones, the lift system and the terrain, lift ticket pricing, lodging options and the resorts location.

      I bet the snow in 1992 would have been fantastic

    Last time I went Mt Hotham was around 18 yrs ago and it was awesome, I took the bus from Melbourne up to the Resort and it was literally snowing as we arrived. Had the best time! In saying that I’m returning to Mt Hotham for a week this coming Sunday 25th August and going to do some snowboarding ( originally a skier ), cannot wait!!

      @@jasperjames8586 yep it was really bad weather, high winds, rain and little snow around 2cm the week I was there. I’ll look at going earlier next year around mid July hopefully it’ll be a better season! Hope!!🤞

    I love Hotham! This year will be my third season visiting. 2022 was fantastic, although last year wasn't as good. Really looking forward to this season.

      We love Hotham too, last year was sad all round once the heat in August arrived. Happy to see a fresh coat of snow across the resorts this morning.

      Honestly, it really might be the best chair in Australia after a good dump of fresh snow.

      Last year in 2023 it was open after a massive snow storm early July, best skiing I had that whole year.

    Victoria I find better then NSW due to how you get access to multiple resorts there in Victoria included in the epic pass! Nice summary to, my family are all staying up at Hotham for a week this holiday! (i come all the way down from Sydney!)

    Blue Cow is also an "upside down ski area" and has been so since 1987. Admittedly it has merged with Perisher, which isn't up side down. But the Blue Cow area of the resort still is.
