Mount Hotham Ski Resort Weather Forecast
About
Mount Hotham is a Vail-owned resort in Victoria's Great Dividing Range, with a village set at about 1,750 meters that ranks among the highest in Australia. It is an upside-down mountain: the village and main lifts sit at the top, and most runs drop away below, with a summit near 1,860 meters and a vertical of about 395 meters. That layout, combined with steep tree-lined descents, gives it a reputation for advanced terrain unusual for an Australian field.
