MT BULLER Mt Buller is Victoria’s largest and Australia’s most accessible major ski resort. If you need a fast snow fix you can get out of Melbourne and into the Frank MBP or be carving a line down Little Buller Spur in three hours flat. Many Aussie shredders wrangled their first turns on Buller’s bustling Bourke Street run, but Buller is much more than a beginner mountain. There are well over three square kilometres of terrain to explore and much of it is tinted blue or black, including great steeps around the summit and southside areas. New this winter is the Bonza! Chairlift injecting new life into the great tree-lined terrain on the northern slopes. Bonza! drops beginners off for a gentle green cruise down Burnt Hut Spur but also opens up some super fun gladed runs and helps traverse-weary boarders make smoother connections to Grimus and up and over to Summit. Buller is also rolling out a new ticketing system, with RFID chipped B-Tags replacing old paper tickets this winter. You can buy your B-Tag online, update your details and even add days and credit to use in resort all before you leave home. B-Tags scan automatically at lift access points to keep skiers and boarders moving and lines to a minimum. By registering your photo and details linked to your B-Tag, Buller Ski Lifts will automatically make you a First Tracks member and send offers and benefits to you using the new technology. At the end of the day there are loads of great places for après, and plenty of accommodation about if you just aren’t ready to head home.
