Victoria High Country

As you drive out of Melbourne towards the beautiful city of Mansfield, the scenery changes and you find yourself amidst grass lands of exceeding natural beauty. Thence you know that you are in the High Country. This region which is situated in the north eastern part of Victoria is one of the most beautiful and historically significant in Australia.

The natural beauty of the region is accentuated by the presence of some of the most easily accessible snowfields here. It is home to Mount Buller, Mt Hotham and Falls Creek, all of which offer views of incomparable beauty. As the snow melts, you have a range of exciting outdoor activities to choose from, ranging from four-wheel driving and mountain biking to horse riding and hiking on the high plains.
