Accomodation & Après Ski
Accommodation is at Dinner Plain which is 10km away and linked by free bus, or at the ski area at the imaginatively named Mount Hotham Central. This complex of restaurants, cafes, bars and apartments is best placed, right at the top of the ski area. Food and apres ski at Hotham Central is good and lively, particularly when the discerning, monied weekenders choose to party.
