A scenic two-hour drive from Melbourne, the country town of Mansfield seems a million miles from city life. Explore the high country and the walking trails that lead across plains of wildflowers, with views of Lake Eildon, the Howqua Valley, Mount Buller and the peaks of the Alpine National Park.
Mansfield is also a popular winter destination, with nearby Mount Buller boasting a variety of skiing terrains from beginner to some of the more challenging runs in Australia. Mount Buller is Victoria's largest ski resort and is serviced by the State's biggest lift network and the most extensive snow-making system in the southern hemisphere. Nearby Mount Stirling provides excellent cross-country skiing, with many well-marked trails through beautiful, sheltered forests of alpine ash, snow gum woodlands and open plains.
For some adrenalin-pumping summer adventure try mountain biking, abseiling or rock climbing on Mount Buller, and canoeing, kayaking or white water rafting on the Howqua and Delatite Rivers.
