New Snow Play and Activity Hub planned for Mount Hotham
Mount Hotham will receive a new Snow Play and Activity Hub secured through a $4.5 million investment from the Victorian Government’s Regional Tourism Investment Fund with the hub aiming to attract more visitors to Mount Hotham and benefit businesses across the region.
The Hub features a day centre and amphitheatre that will serve as an ideal meeting spot for visitors and create a versatile space to host events and live entertainment.
Food and beverage offerings will also be improved with the addition of indoor seating and tables, while new retail spaces and amenities including public bathrooms will deliver an improved experience for snow revellers.
Accommodating snow goers of all levels, the Hub will feature a family friendly space where children can toboggan and build snowmen during the peak winter months.
Delivered in two stages, the project is expected to be completed in 2024.
Visitors to alpine resorts during the snow season contribute more than $1 billion each year to the Victorian economy, supporting 10,000 jobs. Victoria’s resorts are proving to be as popular as ever with the opening week of the season pulling the highest of number of visitors in 20 years.
