Snowboard Jump

Falls Creek

Falls Creek has more beginner-friendly terrain than Hotham and so is more suited to beginner and intermediate riders and skiers.  Falls Creek also has some black runs for the more experienced and normally has the better park of the two resorts for those enthusiasts who like jumps. Another advantage of Falls Creek is that the road only goes to the bottom of the resort so it is easier to drive to in bad weather.

​

Mt Hotham

Mt Hotham has steeper terrain than Falls Creek including some genuine double diamond black runs and so is more suited to intermediate to advanced riders and skiers. It is also home to some good off-piste options. There are  two good beginner slopes and they are both at the top of the mountain so in good weather the view is fantastic.

​

Mt Buffalo
