MT Buller blazed into summer recently with a bumper weekend and is looking forward to a stunning summer season of events.
Mt Buller's vast trail network is squarely on the radar for riders this summer thanks to $1+ million in improvements to the XC and gravity network, including iconic trails such as Delatite River Trail and the Australian Alpine Epic which saw solid rider traffic eager to sample the updates.
The improvements by Contour Works and Trailscapes will continue over summer, and from the grins in the village, the buzz at the Village Bike Café and the looping bike shuttles this weekend it's safe to say word is out – Buller is back as a riding destination.
During the launch weekend for summer on Buller the timeless tradition of taking in the sunset at Mt Buller's summit stepped up a level with DJs Zane Velu and Phil Napoli and Melbourne duo MAMI providing a cool groove to the picnic zone as the afternoon eased into twilight.
Mt Buller is hosting a series of summer Sunset Sessions, the next is on New Year's Day.
Summer nights are seeing a step–change with guided stargazing sessions and a solid line–up of some of Melbourne's finest musicians hitting the stage in The ABOM's Moosehead Whiskey & Blues Bar.
The Astronomical Society of Victoria will share their expertise with sessions set to continue regularly over the summer – watch Mt Buller's website for full details.
"There are so many great new reasons to plan a stay up here," said resort spokesperson Rhylla Morgan.
"Whether it's an indulgent long lunch, Christmas snowplay, exploring the night sky or the trail network, or escaping the summer heat you can choose your speed and find something for everyone.
"We are pleased how many people are choosing to give experiences this festive season with gifts they feel good about, don't have to wrap and that support regional tourism businesses at the same time."
Mt Buller is offering twilight snowplay on real snow in the village daily during the Christmas–New Year week with peak holiday period accommodation still available in the village.
