Falls Creek is 356kms (about 4.5 hours) from Melbourne and approximately eight hours' drive from Sydney. Falls Creek enjoys some of the best snow cover of all the Victorian ski Resorts, combined with the ambiance of a beautiful Alpine Village. It has 450 hectares of ski terrain for the downhill and snowboarding enthusiast and a fully integrated lift network. For the cross country and ski touring skiers, the Bogong High Plains offer some of the most beautiful mountain scenery anywhere. 2004 saw the addition of a super pipe, the first in Australia, and Falls Creek continues to develop new terrain for riders. The real attraction of this resort is the opportunity to ski at the adjacent Mt McKay, with 365m of true black diamond terrain. Guided snow cat trips take place twice a day and it is well worth the trip. Off the slopes, Falls Creek has more than 4,200 beds in the village ranging from economy style to luxury. There is a variety of self contained apartments, commercial lodges, and self catering lodges. Off-mountain accommodation is available at Mt. Beauty, Bo gong Village, and Howman's Gap.

Visitor Reviews of Falls Creek
JJamesSanFrancisco from United States writes:
Falls Creek is beautiful and for a cross-country skier like myself there are miles and miles to explore. You can ski right out to some of those old cattlemans huts like from the Man from Snowy River which is cool.
I found it a little difficult to get to Falls Creek, but ended up travelling with a group called Mountainhound -mountainhound.com.au who run all inclusive packages to Falls Creek. This included transport from the Melbourne CBD in a van rather than a bus. I found booking very easy, all through one website, rather than having to search around and find accommodation, transport etc for myself.
I am a cross country skier so I booked a ski package excluding lift tickets which still included off-the-snow accommodation and everything else - 2 nights accommodation, transport, 3 dinners, resort entry and a backpack (which is actually decent, still using it!) with gourmet snacks and special deals on gear and food inside.
