Prepare for adventure
Fill your lungs with clear alpine air and hike through the stunning Alpine National Park, ride a mountain bike on one of hundreds of tracks, explore the High Plains on horseback, and enjoy tranquil fishing in the Kiewa River.

Bring your skis and boards in winter to conquer the runs at nearby Falls Creek, staying in the village's luxury alternatives to on-mountain accommodation.

Bogong beauty
