TOBOGGANING & SNOWPLAY 

The Mt Hotham toboggan and snowplay area at Wire Plain (Bus Stop 12) is the ideal location to throw a snowball, make a snowman and hit the toboggan slope for some family friendly good times!  A moderate toboggan slope is suited to kids of all ages.

The Snowstuff Park is adventure-lovers dream come true, with a range of activities that include adrenalin pumping skidoo tours, to calm and relaxing hot-tub experiences. Check out the details below.
