WHEN YOU ARRIVE SNOW CHAINS By law, all vehicles driving to Victorian alpine resorts are required to carry snow chains (including 4WD’s). You can rent these at several outlets in Myrtleford, Bright and Mt Beauty along the way. With regular snow clearing you should only need to fit them if it snows heavily on the day you arrive or the night before. If you do need to fit chains there are designated bays to do this. Please ensure you obey all signage indicating fitting of chains. If you are unsure whether you need to fit chains check the live status in the snow report at fallscreek.com.au. You can also call Visitor Information on (03) 5758 1202, ask at the Resort Entry Ticket Box or check the status on the lit sign just beyond Bogong Village. RESORT ENTRY During the Snow Season all vehicles entering the resort need a valid Resort Entry Pass for the length of your stay. All resort entry passes expire at midnight on the last day of the pass. Visiting for the Day or Overnight costs $54 per day, or $49.50 if you buy online. You can access the resort for free for the evening after 5pm, if leaving prior to midnight, and visitors aged over 65 get 20% off advertised pricing. If you plan to visit 9 days or more the best value option is to buy a Season Permit for $450 (online).

VILLAGE ACCESS & CAR PARKING For day trips you can self-park in the Gully or Slalom North Day Car Parks. Other day parking exists if these are full - follow the directions of parking attendants. For overnight stays stop at the ATS Terminal on the main road where parking attendants will direct you to an Overnight parking area. A free shuttle will return you to the terminal from your car. From 28th June to 10th September Falls Creek Village is closed to vehicles. Outside of these times you can drive to your accommodation with a temporary 30 minute access permit to unload your luggage (subject to road conditions). If you arrive after hours when no attendants are on duty, park in the after hours parking area near ATS, or the fire station. You will need to move your vehicle by 10:00am the following day and obtain the necessary Resort Entry Pass. Make sure you obey all signage when parking and ensure your vehicle is parked completely within the lines of an approved parking space. Infringements apply for incorrect parking. TIPS FOR DRIVING AT FALLS CREEK • LP Gas vehicles: Switch to petrol for best performance in alpine areas. • D iesel vehicles: Alpine diesel fuel mix should be used in all diesel vehicles (available in Myrtleford, Bright and Mt Beauty). • Fuel: Fill up in Mt Beauty as there is none available at Falls Creek. • S now-chains: Always fit chains when advised, it is a good idea if staying for a few days to fit chains when you park. • Driving: In icy conditions, avoid sudden braking or hard acceleration. • V isibility: Drive with your headlights on in foggy conditions and avoid using high beams. • S now on vehicle: Do not drive with accumulated snow on your vehicle, doing so is dangerous and creates hazards to other vehicles. • I cy windows: Use a stiff plastic scraper to clear ice from car windows (never pour hot water on an icy windscreen!). • Snow clearing: You may need a shovel to dig your car out of the snow. • P ark and ride: If you are not experienced driving in the snow use the park and ride facility from Mt Beauty with Falls Creek Coaches.

SNOWSHOEING & FATBIKING

WINTER INSIDER’S GUIDE 2018


OUR ENVIRONMENT At Falls Creek the mountains, clean air and pristine alpine views are our greatest asset. There are many ways you can help protect our beautiful environment during your stay. If you drop it, you drink it! Falls Creek is situated at the top of the water catchment and water from our streams feed the Murray river and eventually travel all the way to South Australia. Please don’t pollute our pristine waters by littering….bin it! Reduce your waste Falls Creek has been collecting and recycling its food waste since 2011. Up to 40% of the resort’s waste is foodwaste and when placed in landfill produces methane, a potent greenhouse gas. Look for the green ‘Living Bin’ in your accommodation and separate your food waste (fruit, vegetables, meat, eggs, tea bags…anything that was once living). You can also reduce your waste by bringing your reusable coffee cup and reusable shopping bags with you to Falls Creek, just like you do at home. Protect Our Winters The effects of climate change could dramatically impact the alpine region’s unique biodiversity. Falls Creek proudly supports the Protect Our Winters campaign which aims to mobilize the outdoor sport community to take positive action on climate change. Some small actions you can take include; • R educe transport energy. Car pool to Falls Creek and walk around the village as much as you can. • T urn off lights and appliances at the power point when not in use. • I nsulate your house or lodge. Turn down the thermostat and use draught stoppers. • I nvest in high star-rating, energy efficient appliances, and wash clothes in cold water. • P urchase greenhouse friendly products and purchase local to reduce the carbon footprint of transporting products. • S upport renewable energy sources. Switch to Green Power with your electricity provider.

WHEN THE SNOW MELTS FALLS CREEK CRANKS INTO A NEW GEAR WITH SUMMER EVENTS AND ADVENTURES TAKING THE STAGE. FALLS CREEK MOUNTAIN BIKE PARK Falls Creek is one of Australia’s most exciting alpine mountain bike parks. Falls Creek was recently voted the ‘most appealing element’ of the existing High Country MTB offer. Visit between November and April to ride over 40km of flowing singletrack in pristine landscape. The park is ideal for intermediates and beginners but there are challenges for the advanced as well. All trails start and finish within the resort and weekend bike shuttles make for endless rides without the uphill grind. ROAD CYCLING The road to Falls Creek features challenging climbs, an awesome backdrop and finishes at a village as cycle-friendly as they come. Riding Falls Creek is a dream, it’s no wonder one of the world’s top ten best Sportives and Grand Fondos is held here with the Peaks Challenge event. TRAIL RUNNING & HIKING At over 1600m, Falls Creek Is arguably the nation’s best altitude training location. There are 45km+ of National Park trails plus the 250ha Rocky Valley Lake is a feature you don’t find just anywhere. A major highlight is The 37km Falls to Hotham Alpine Crossing – a 3 day, 2 night adventure trek between the two alpine resorts. With eco-friendly camping platforms and an alternate single day route this is a challenging yet achievable addition to any bucket list. EVENTS & VILLAGE LIFE Summer continues to grow each year and the village is a hive of activity with riders, runners, families and groups across most dates. Regular kids activities and a non-stop calendar of events add to the charm and beauty of a high country summer holiday.
