Service Station

Before you begin the drive up the hill to Falls Creek, it is important to make sure your vehicle is ready for the drive. If you have a diesel vehicle you will need to stop in Mount Beauty and top up with Alpine Diesel. You will need to ensure you have enough space in your tank as you will need around 50% of the mix to be Alpine Diesel to ensure your car will start in the cold temperatures at Falls Creek. Alternatively you can add an Anti-Freeze/Coolant to your cars diesel mix. Petrol cars do not need any additives placed in the tank.

If you do not have snow chains with you, Mount Beauty is the last place to rent or purchase them for your vehicle. Snow chains are legally required to be carried by all vehicles, 2WD and 4WD. Police regularly check vehicles are carrying chains and you can be issued with a fine if you are not carrying them.

Arrival

When you arrive at Falls Creek you will need to make your way to the Accommodation Transfer Services (ATS) terminal located on Bogong High Plains Rd. Here you can unload your car and head into the terminal to prepare for your oversnow journey to your accommodation.

Before your oversnow journey, a member of your group will need to park your car in the overnight car park. Once they have parked the car they will be transported back to the ATS terminal by a member of the ATS team.

Once the car is parked and you are on the oversnow it is time to officially begin your Falls Creek snow holiday!
