Why Spring!?
Creamy Corduroy: Hit the right aspect at the right time and you’ll find forgiving edgeable groomers for most of the day. Once the sun has worked its magic head for ‘Sun Run’ on Roadrunner for wide open intermediate cruising. For the more adventurous ‘The Canyon’ on Heavenly Valley will start to soften earliest providing great turns. Mid to late morning head over to the Orchard for smooth corduroy and spectacular views out to Mt Feathertop!
Wide-open spaces: Sometimes it can feel as though you have the slopes all to yourself in spring! Less crowds means room to move, perfect for improving your skiing or snowboarding. Beginners and intermediates can take advantage of empty runs and smooth soft snow. For families with kids who are learning, spring can be the ideal time to visit Hotham.
The Perfect Time to Learn: With the sun high, the snow softens and is more forgiving. The Summit makes for great beginner terrain and with amazing deals on our Beginner Bundle, you can make the most of the quieter slopes. Alternatively, grab a discounted Private Lesson and make the most of some one-on-one instruction. It really is the perfect time to learn.
Launch into Hotham Parks! Soft snow means soft landings perfect for progression. If mid winter’s firm landings have you intimidated, spring is the perfect time break free and progress your park riding. The new Big D Terrain Park is firing and perfect for progression, or if you’re feeling more adventurous head to the Summit Park.
Après: After an awesome day (or morning, because Spring is for cruising) on the mountain retreat to your favourite sunlit balcony for après and snacks. There are so many decks to enjoy the sun from at Hotham, from Hoff Hut out in Heavenly Valley, to Zirky’s, Hotham Hotel and our favourites for the sunset hour, The Bird and The Genny.
