This season Dinner Plain, together with Hotham Alpine Resort, is offering Australia's most affordable winter fun. The village now provides family lift tickets for as little as $99 per day*, making it the most affordable family lift ticket available for the 2014 ski season in Australia. This incredible package gives families the chance to experience a winter holiday to remember without breaking the bank.
Cobungra Platter slope at Dinner Plain is ideal for families looking for a quieter place to get their younger children started on skis or a snowboard. Beginner group lessons and private lessons are also available for those after more expert guidance. The gentle gradient ensures novice skiers and snowboarders can master their technique for as little as $39 per day ** before hitting the more challenging runs at Hotham Alpine Resort.
Furthermore, thanks to the commitment from the Alpine Shire Council, Mount Hotham Skiing Company and the Victorian Government under the -Putting Locals First program', Dinner Plain can now guarantee more reliable snow than ever with the addition of two brand-new snow guns.
'We are very excited to be able to offer such a fantastic winter experience at such an affordable price. Winter is a beautiful time of year and we would really like to encourage all Australians to take advantage of the colder months. With Dinner Plain and Hotham only a short distance apart, families really do receive the best of both worlds during their winter escape – the gentle beginner slope at Dinner Plain as well as more challenging, advanced runs of Hotham," commented Belinda Trembath, General Manager, Mount Hotham Skiing Company.
