Traverse Hotham

HOME / Traverse Hotham

Spreading the joy of cross country (XC) skiing, snowshoeing and Nordic backcountry touring in our pristine Winter wonderland. We specialise in the journey, immersion in nature, understanding the alpine environment and exploring at a human pace – discover trails less travelled and escape to a whole other world!

What do we offer?

Cross country (XC) skiing

Join us for an Intro to XC beginner lesson to learn the fundamentals of cross country skiing and start exploring effectively and safely. If you're coming over from downhill skiing, you may be surprised just how different XC ski techniques are. If you've never been on skis at all, we recommend booking an Absolute Beginner private lesson.

Snowshoeing

Perhaps skiing isn’t for you? For something more relaxed yet equally immersive and awe-inspiring, our guided snowshoe tours at Mount Hotham and Dinner Plain are the perfect way to experience the pristine beauty of Victoria's alpine winter landscape. Take in spectacular alpine views on top of the world with a Sunset Snowshoeing Experience – snowshoes and poles hire included!

Nordic backcountry

'Backcountry' comes in many forms and can be enjoyed in myriad ways. Go beyond the groomed trails with a private Nordic backcountry ski tour. Drawing on extensive local knowledge and experience, we'll guide you through some of the most diverse and magnificent backcountry terrain around Mount Hotham and Dinner Plain, with itineraries tailored to your ability and goals.


Get a group of five or more together for any lesson or guided experience and enjoy 20% off adult rates for everyone!
