It might be cold outside but there’s plenty on offer in Murrindindi Shire this winter to keep you warm. From brisk hikes in the bush and family fun in the snow, to hearty winter meals by an open fire in a historic country pub. Or simply jump in the car for a scenic drive through the hills with the heater on high and your favourite playlist turned up loud! #roadtripmemories
Here’s some ideas to help plan your winter escape:
- Enjoy some snow play and tobogganing at Lake Mountain Alpine Resort.
- Explore the Yea Wetlands and Discovery Centre, including Badji Baanang an impressive Indigenous garden celebrating Taungurung plants and culture.
- Cosy up and camp under the stars in the Cathedral Range State Park or pitch a tent at Murrindindi Scenic Reserve and settle in for a weekend by the campfire with friends and family.
- If luxury is more your thing, book into a quaint bed and breakfast or boutique hotel to relax and enjoy the finer things.
- Try a spot of winter hiking above Lake Eildon on the Blowhard Spur Circuit for breathtaking views over the lake and to the snow-capped peaks beyond.
- Visit one of our wondrous waterfalls, including Snobs Creek Falls in Eildon or Masons Falls in Kinglake National Park.
- Get your art fix on the Great Victorian Rail Trail, the Dindi Arts Trail or Marysville Information and Regional Artspace (MiRa).
