2024 Season to close


29 August 2024

Snow Season 2024 ends this Sunday afternoon... let's slide!

Buller Ski Lifts has confirmed Sunday 1 September will be the last day of lifted operations for the 2024 snow season.

Despite the heroic efforts of the mountain operations team who have been making and moving snow it has been decided skiing and snowboarding for the season will wrap up at 5pm Sunday.

A fortnight of gale force winds, rain and wild weather has dramatically reduced the snow cover across most of the ski area and all available snow is being harvested and groomed to ensure the best possible experience for guests on Bourke Street and the Gliders carpet area until the close of operations.

Buller Ski Lifts General Manager shared the decision today,

"Like all skiers and snowboarders we were holding out hopes for season-saving snow in last night's storm however the 1-2cms that fell was unfortunately too little, too late.  I would like to thank everyone in our team who has tried valiantly to keep us sliding for as long as possible.  It seems unfair to have had two challenging seasons in a row but I am immensely proud of everyone who have kept striving and smiling and will be doing so until Sunday afternoon.” 

Skiers and boarders are invited to make the most of the final days of the season with fun sliding on Bourke Street with the Bourke Street Express and Bourke St and Gliders carpets rolling and ideal conditions for beginners with soft spring snow.  

Lift passes are discounted to reflect the reduced terrain and beginner level lessons are available at the Ski & Snowboard School.

Resort Management GM Alan Arthur shared, 

"I want to thank everyone for their hard work in what has been an incredibly challenging season. The lack of natural snow was not what we wanted for our 100th year of skiing, but the celebrations were a highlight I’m sure many of us won’t forget. We now look forward to the green season, and planning for winter 2025."

Vehicles will be free to enter the Mt Buller Village from noon and the requirement to carry wheel chains will no longer be enforced. Please note there is some snow on the forecast next week so please check conditions and carry chains for your safety.

Resort Entry and parking charges have been reduced to $44 for the last days of season 2024.  The free carpark shuttle and village shuttles will run until 6pm on Sunday and bookable RideShare services will be available for those with luggage or needing transport directly between accommodation and car parks. 

The Medical Centre will be open until 5pm Sunday 1 September.  Anyone with a medical emergency after that time should phone 000 for assistance from Ambulance Victoria.

The Mt Buller community thanks everyone for sharing the season and making memories as we've marked 100 years of skiing together.
